The champions will travel to New Douglas Park top of the table after nine successive wins and on the back of arguably the most one-sided league game of the season when they coasted to a 3-0 home win over Kilmarnock on Wednesday. By contrast, after a bright start to their first season in the SPL, Billy Reid's young side find themselves already facing the prospect of a relegation battle having failed to win any of their last eight games. However, Strachan, pointed to a shock defeat at Falkirk two seasons ago when his side lost 1-0 to a Steven Thompson goal.
"It was the same situation as Accies [Falkirk had not won in eight games] and we got beaten, so we have had that reminder before. Everywhere we go to play, the opposition get themselves up for it." Young striker Cillian Sheridan, who grabbed a double against Killie, should partner Scott McDonald once again as Georgios Samaras makes his way back to full fitness.
