We said: Rangers 2-0 St Johnstone

 Rangers were initially frustrated by both Livingston and Kilmarnock in their opening two league fixtures before eventually coming away with maximum points on both occasions. A resilient performance is required from St Johnstone if they are to keep the Gers quiet this weekend, but we feel that the hosts will have too much quality in attack for the visitors and should do enough to maintain their 100% start to the new Premiership season.
