Hearts 4-0 St Mirren: Analysis

Date:

A Stephen Robinson St Mirren side would usually be thought of as defensively sound and able to create a few clear-cut chances every game.

They’ve now lost seven of their last 10 games in all competitions and are routinely punished when falling behind early.

They have failed to win any of their last seven matches when conceding first in the Premiership, and have now conceded 3 goals in the first 15 minutes of the second half, more than any other top-flight side this season.

In addition, they have conceded 9 first-half goals in 9 games, no team has conceded more in the Premiership this season.

While these stats point towards a loss in concentration defensively, their attacking players aren’t bailing them out at the other end of the pitch.

They’ve now failed to score in three of their nine league games and perhaps most alarmingly, didn’t register a shot on target at Tynecastle.
