Form, head to head (H2H) statistics, predictions and the best odds are all laid out below. It's our job to give you all the information you need to place a smart, well-informed bet. We've backed , but why not use the stats to find the perfect bet for you?


Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The stats suggest there isn't an obvious winner in this fixture, but good reason to think Raith Rovers and St. Johnstone will find the net twice at least between them. Goals have flowed freely when they've gone head-to-head in years gone by, and neither Dougie Imrie or Simo Valakari has subjected their supporters to too many 0-0s of late either. The bookies predict over 1.5 goals too, with top odds of 1.33 equating to approximately a 80% probability.
