History of the Queen of the South v St. Mirren fixture

Queen o.t.S. prepare to entertain St. Mirren at Palmerston Park on Saturday evening, and hold the advantage on previous meetings between the two. The Doonhamers have the slight edge, having won 18 of the 38 games compared to St Mirren's 11 wins.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Palmerston Park was less than a year ago, in March 2003, as the visitors ran out cosy 0-2 winners in a Scottish Division One match.
