Matchup Motherwell VS ST Johnstone
ST Johnstone hold a narrow line
ST Johnstone’s slight historical advantage is repeatedly tested by Motherwell’s responses. On 16 August 2025, Motherwell won the League Cup meeting 1-0 after extra time, with the score 0-0 at the end of normal time. Motherwell then won 3-2 in the Premiership on 26 April 2025. ST Johnstone had taken a 2-1 result on 25 January 2025 and a 1-0 FA Cup win on 18 January 2025.
Cup and league tell different stories
The alternating results extend further. Motherwell won 2-1 on 9 November 2024 and again on 31 August 2024, while ST Johnstone won 2-1 on 19 May 2024. A 1-1 draw on 27 January 2024 supplies a quieter counterpoint, and earlier matches include ST Johnstone’s 5-1 win on 5 May 2018. Future meetings will ask whether Motherwell can turn its narrow answers into a clearer edge, or whether ST Johnstone’s small historical advantage continues to survive each reversal.
