It's a quick turnaround for Saints as we host Celtic at The SMiSA Stadium on Saturday evening.
The Buddies go into Saturday's match on the back of a 3-1 defeat to Hearts at Tynecastle on Wednesday night. Saints held a deserved first-half lead after Mikael Mandron kept up his good run of goalscoring form to put us ahead. But three second-half goals saw Hearts pick up the points and move above Saints in the William Hill Premiership.
Stephen Robinson's men sit in seventh place in the league, two points off Hearts and six points behind fourth place Hibernian with five games remaining before the split.
