A defeat for the pair, along with a shock Saints victory at Parkhead, would see the Perthshire side move behind only Celtic and Rangers in the league table. Callum Davidson's side are just a point behind Aberdeen and are level on points with Hearts.

Kyogo's at the double and Hatate has got in on the act too with Saints looking at the second half ominously. James Forrest is keen to get in on the act.
