St. Mirren vs Rangers Prediction

St. Mirren have made a two-game winless start to their league season, failing to score in both games. However, they have been a bogey team to their visitors in recent years, having not lost any of the last three head-to-head games (two wins).

Rangers, for their part, have played out a 1-1 draw in each of their opening two league games. Furthermore, they have won just one of their last four and are on the cusp of being eliminated from the Champions League.
