Why it might land
  • St Johnstone are priced at 2.25 to win this match which shows the bookmakers expect them to create plenty of chances away from home.
  • Kilmarnock come into this fixture at Rugby Park after collecting two draws and a win alongside two defeats in their last five outings.
  • The over on the 2.75 goal line is offered at 1.88 which suggests the market expects a fairly open game on the afternoon.
Why it might not
  • Kilmarnock recently suffered two defeats in a row which makes trusting their defensive stability a risky business for anyone watching.
  • St Johnstone also recorded two losses and two draws in their last five fixtures showing they are far from reliable winners.

Edge Analysis

In depth
The matchup

The market makes St Johnstone the side to beat here at 40%, but only just, so this reads as a close call rather than a mismatch. Our model lands on Over 2.75, and it backs that with a 2 units stake. St Johnstone arrive at Rugby Park with prices suggesting a tight contest but both teams carry mixed runs that point towards goals. The betting line sits at 2.75 with the over priced at 1.88 for this Saturday afternoon Scottish Premiership clash.

Form and momentum

Kilmarnock come in poor, winning 17% of 6 on record. 0 of their 4 home games went their way, and the numbers point to a fairly even scoring record. Right now they are on 1 draw in a row.

St Johnstone come in poor, winning 17% of 6 on record. 0 of their 3 away games went their way, and the numbers point to a fairly even scoring record. Right now they are on 1 draw in a row.

The price and the value

The prices turn into 34% for KIL, 26% for the draw and 40% for STJ once the bookmaker margin is stripped out. There is little between the two in the market, so the edge, if there is one, sits in the detail rather than the headline price. Our call sits at 1.88, and we only stake it because the reasons for it outweigh the reasons against.

Where it could go wrong
  • Kilmarnock recently suffered two defeats in a row which makes trusting their defensive stability a risky business for anyone watching.
  • St Johnstone also recorded two losses and two draws in their last five fixtures showing they are far from reliable winners.
The bottom line

We back Over 2.75 for 2 units. It settles itself when the game ends, win or lose, and it goes on the record either way. This is an opinion read off the form and the prices on this page, not advice, and never a promise of a result.
