Last season St Mirren finished their Scottish Premiership campaign in the bottom half of the table, which is something that they will be aiming to improve upon this time around.
The Buddies kickstart their journey at home as they welcome Motherwell, who will be hoping to push one step further this time around and break into the top five.
We say: St Mirren 1-2 Motherwell
St Mirren have had mixed results during the preseason, and in the Scottish League Cup, which has not provided the best possible start to their season.
The visitors had a much stronger campaign last year, and they will be aiming to take that confidence into the new season, and they should have enough to get the job done.

Defending Scottish Premiership champions Celtic will commence their season on Sunday when they host Aberdeen as the Hoops look to get things started with a bang.
The visitors found themselves involved in a regulation battle during the previous campaign, which is something they will be desperate to avoid happening again.
We say: Celtic 3-0 Aberdeen
Aberdeen have put together some impressive performances in recent weeks, with Goodwin showcasing that his team are ready to make major improvements from last season.
However, Celtic are set to be involved in the title race once again this season, and the Hoops should have enough qualities to pick up three points on Sunday.
