What to expect
We expect about 0.9 goals from St Mirren and 1.9 from Celtic, so Celtic come out ahead by a clear distance rather than a nose. Put together, that is around 2.7 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.
Celtic come into this on three straight wins. Recent results are only ever part of the story, but they are worth knowing before kick-off.
Our pick: Celtic to win. Celtic shade this one on the numbers (xG 0.9-1.9), and we make them about 62% to win. They look the better bet on the road, and backing them outright is the straightforward way in.
We put the chance of that landing at about 62 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.51, which works out at about 66 out of 100. The price is shorter than our own read, so there is less in this than it might look.
One thing to watch
A red card, a penalty or a smash-and-grab is all it takes for St Mirren to spoil this. The price is shorter than our own read of about 62%, so there's less value here than the number suggests.
