  • 15' Lewis Stevenson has been relatively quiet despite scoring 2 goals in his last 297 appearances.
  • 20' The 32-year-old Jason Naismith has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.

  • 30' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
