St Johnstone vs Motherwell lineups

St Johnstone

St Johnstone are coming off a well-deserved 2-1 win over Kilmarnock; they had no wins in 11 prior games, with four draws and seven losses. Alec Cleland's men will hope to string up back-to-back wins for the first time since November last year; it'll be interesting to see how they'll match-up against fellow strugglers Motherwell. Dara Costelloe is suspended due to a red card, while Sam McClelland and Drey Wright are both in the recovery room.

Predicted lineups: Mitov, McGowan, Gordon, Considine, Robinson, Phillips, Spangler, Smith, Carey, Kane, Clark.

Motherwell

Like today's opponents, the past couple of months have not been very pleasant for Motherwell; they have no wins in their last seven games, with a draw and seven losses. Stuart Kettlewell will hope to guide his team back on course as they make the trip to the McDiarmid Park on Tuesday evening. Pepe Souare is recovering from an ankle injury, and will be unavailable for the visiting team.

Predicted lineups: Kelly, Casey, Butcher, Blaney, Spencer, Patón, Spittal, O'Donnell, Bair, Wilkinson, Biereth.

Starting lineups

*Lineups will be automatically updated shortly after they're announced.

Player to watch: Mika Biereth

It's important to point out that Mika Biereth joined Motherwell on loan in August, and he has only played five matches across all competitions since then. Interestingly, Biereth was directly involved in five goals in those five appearances, scoring three times with two assists. It should be worth keeping an eye out for the Danish player.
