St Johnstone prepare to entertain Inverness Caledonian Thistle at McDiarmid Park on Saturday evening, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. The Saints have drawn both of the previous games against their opponents, however.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at McDiarmid Park was less than a year ago, in February 2003, with St Johnstone running out comfortable 2-0 winners in a Scottish Division One match.
