Footymad preview History of the Inverness Caledonian Thistle v St. Mirren fixture

Inverness Caledonian Thistle prepare to entertain St. Mirren at Caledonian Stadium on Wednesday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Caley Thistle are clearly on top, having won 12 and lost only 4 of the 20 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Caledonian Stadium was less than a year ago, in January 2012, when they played out a goalless draw in a Scottish Premier match.
