Recent respective form guides

St. Johnstone's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just one and draw two of the last six. While the Saints have hit six goals, 10 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Aberdeen see themselves just below half way in the Clydesdale Bank Scottish Premier, showing a record of 34 points from their 32 games played so far, St. Johnstone see themselves just below half way in the Clydesdale Bank Scottish Premier, showing a record of 38 points from their 32 games played so far - but they could yet pip Hearts and get into the top six if results go their way this weekend.
