St Mirren host Hearts at The SMiSA Stadium on Saturday in our penultimate home match of the 2022/23 season.
Saints were narrowly beaten by Hibernian at Easter Road in our first post-split fixture. Alex Greive netted in the second-half, but it wasn't enough to earn a share of the spoils after two first-half goals from the Hibees. The Buddies currently sit in sixth place in the cinch Premiership on 44 points.
Hearts come into the match sitting in fourth place - four points above Saints. Interim Hearts boss Steven Naismith saw his side reduced to 10 men on Sunday as they lost 2-0 at home to Celtic. That was the Jambos sixth loss in seven league matches, but their performance against Celtic, married with a 6-1 home win over Ross County before the split, will have given Hearts a boost.
