St Mirren travel to the Tony Macaroni Arena to face Livingston on Wednesday night for our final match of 2022.
The Buddies made their long-awaited return from the World Cup break on Saturday - defeating Aberdeen 3-1 at the SMiSA Stadium. After falling behind an own-goal from Kelle Roos following Mark O'Hara's penalty drew us level going into half-time. O'Hara netted from the spot early in the second-half with Greg Kiltie sealing the points in added time.
Victory saw Stephen Robinson's men move to within a point of third place and extend their unbeaten run at home to nine matches.
Livingston have lost their two matches since returning to action. There was a narrow 2-1 defeat for David Martindale's outfit away to Celtic on Wednesday night, while they were also defeated 4-0 by Hibernian at Easter Road on Christmas Eve.
The Lions sit in eighth place in the cinch Premiership - a point behind Saints in sixth.

Previous
A last-gasp Alex Greive strike gave Saints a dramatic win over Livingston when the sides last met in October. Keanu Baccus had put St Mirren ahead before Jonah Ayunga was shown a red card for a deliberate handball. Sean Kelly missed the resultant penalty, but Livingston would equalise with just a few minutes to go through Bruce Anderson. 10-men Saints kept going and found an injury-time winner through Greive.
The Buddies are unbeaten in their last three league trips to the Tony Macaroni Arena. Winning 1-0 and drawing 1-1 on their two league visits to Livingston last season.
Saints are unbeaten in their last eight league matches against the Lions - a run which stretches back to February 2020.
