St Mirren v Inverness Caledonian Thistle betting tips - Parkin can fire Buddies to win

MILTON KEYNES, ENGLAND - MARCH 25: Sam Parkin (L) of Swindon battles with Steve Palmer of Milton Keynes during the Coca-Cola League One match between Milton Keynes Dons and Swindon Town at The National Hockey Stadium on March 25, 2005 in Milton Keynes, England. (Photo by Julian Finney/Getty Images)
St Mirren and Inverness Caledonian Thistle are two teams who could struggle in the SPL this season and both will be keen to avoid defeat in their opening match on Saturday.

Inverness Caledonian Thistle manager Terry Butcher has continued his policy of bringing in players from outside of the SPL with signings from Gillingham, Newport County and Macclesfield hardly inspiring much hope that the Highlanders can improve upon their 10th placed finish from last season.

Caley are 6/1 at Bet Victor to be relegated and most bookies agree that it will be Butcher's men, newly promoted Ross County and Dundee and St Mirren who battle it out to avoid finishing bottom of the pile this year. Given that, Saturday's opener with the Buddies could well prove to be a very important match both in terms of points and in terms of psychology for the remainder of the season.

It is 23/10 at totesport that Inverness win at St Mirren Park but that is too short against the Paisley based team who don't actually look that bad at the moment. Danny Lennon has brought in Sam Parkin in attack and the former St Johnstone striker will score goals while Steven Thompson will offer some much needed experience.

It is this firepower that should see St Mirren avoid relegation and it is this pairing that can help them to beat Caley Thistle on Saturday. It is 11/8 at bet365 that they take maximum points and that, along with the 13/2 from Paddy Power that Parkin breaks the deadlock, looks to be the best option for those having a wager on the game.

Recommendation

Win Market - St Mirren (11/8, bet365)
First Goalscorer - Sam Parkin (13/2, Paddy Power)
