St Mirren are back at The SMiSA Stadium on Sunday as we host Rangers in an early kick-off in the cinch Premiership.
The Buddies made it seven unbeaten in the league this season following a 1-1 draw with Kilmarnock at Rugby Park on Saturday. Stephen Robinson's men sit in second in the cinch Premiership having won four and drawn three of our opening seven.
Rangers will be led by an interim management team of Steven Davis and Alex Rae following the sacking of Michael Beale on Sunday. The Englishman departed Ibrox after a 3-1 defeat to Aberdeen at the weekend.
Rangers currently sit three points behind Saints in the cinch Premiership having won four and lost three of their opening seven matches. The Ibrox side are in Europa League action on Thursday, facing Aris Limassol in Cyprus.
