There will be immense pressure on Ross County in the playoffs, as they will be fighting for their place in the SPL next season. They finished the regular season in eleventh overall, as they picked up nine wins from 38 matches. However, they narrowly avoided finishing bottom of the standings, as they finished just three points clear of Dundee United.
Ross County comes into this fixture having gone three league matches without defeat, and they have lost twice over that period. Their most recent defeat came on the final day of the SPL on Sunday, as they were easily beaten 3-1 on the road by Kilmarnock.
