St Mirren vs Motherwell

Six goals and no shortage of drama at The SMISA Stadium on Sunday, 30 August 2026, as St Mirren and Motherwell shared the points in a 3-3 thriller that had everything but a winner. The hosts raced into a commanding position and led 3-2 at the break, having traded blows with a Motherwell side who refused to sit back and take it. Both defences had a torrid afternoon, but neither goalkeeper could be blamed much either given the quality on show going forward. Motherwell dragged themselves level after the interval, cancelling out St Mirren's advantage to leave the game finely poised right to the end. Neither side could find a way through again, and the points were shared. For St Mirren, it'll feel like two dropped after leading at half-time, while Motherwell will take real encouragement from the fight they showed to come back from behind on the road.
