Fir Park plays host to the Lanarkshire derby with Hamilton Academical on Saturday.

Here’s the game previewed in numbers.

Five

With the 2018/19 season reaching its climax, Motherwell have five games left to try and take a top six spot in the Ladbrokes Premiership.

Stephen Robinson’s side are currently just four points behind Hibernian in sixth, with a trip to Easter Road also on the horizon.

Seven

The Steelmen are unbeaten in seven of their last eight matches, winning six of them.

Victories over Hamilton, Hibernian, Dundee, St Mirren, Livingston and Hearts were followed by defeat at Celtic and a draw at Kilmarnock.

10

In their 65 competitive visits to Fir Park, Hamilton have won 10 times. The most recent, of course, came in their last visit to ML1 earlier in the season.

Motherwell have been victorious 37 times on home turf, while there have been 18 draws.

The third and potentially final Lanarkshire derby of the season is upon us.

Here’s an early lookahead to Saturday’s match at Fir Park.

The form guide

Motherwell are unbeaten in seven of their last eight games, picking up six consecutive victories along the way.

Celtic ended the run two games ago, before the team picked up a point at Kilmarnock in challenging conditions.

Under new manager Brian Rice, the Accies have picked up. Prior to his appointment on 31 January, they had lost eight of their last 10 matches, winning just one.

Since his arrival, his five games have seen wins over St Johnstone and Aberdeen, a draw with Dundee and defeats to Rangers and Hibernian.

Head to head

Both have left enemy territory with wins this campaign. A stunning Steven Boyd strike early in the season gave Accies the three points at Fir Park, before Tom Aldred’s double secured a passionate victory over there.

In total, the two sides have met 131 times competitively. Motherwell have won 63, while Accies have 33 victories.

Thirty-seven of the ‘Well’s wins have come at Fir Park, while the visitors have won just 10 on their travels.

After one failed attempt, we headed back to Kilmarnock buoyed by a tremendous travelling support.

This is the Story of the Match from the trip to Rugby Park.

Motherwell’s reserves fell to a 4-2 home defeat at the hands of Falkirk on Monday.

Maurice Ross’ side had the lead midway through the first half, but went in behind at the break and ultimately failed to recover.

Liam Donnelly, Elliott Frear and Danny Johnson added first-team experience to the ranks, with Frear grabbing ‘Well’s opener.

Akeel Rehman set the winger free down the left side of the box, before his low shot found its way past Leo Fasan in the Falkirk goal with 19 minutes played.

Minutes later, the Bairns were level. Lavery raced onto a flick-on, before keeping his cool to beat Rohan Ferguson.

Just after the half hour mark, the visitors were ahead. Dunne surged forward from left back, beat two men and fired an unstoppable shot into the net.

Frear and Donnelly had chances to get the Steelmen level again, before Falkirk extended their lead with 18 minutes left on the clock.

Dunne was again involved, laying it on for Kidd to beat Ferguson, despite the goalkeeper getting a hand to the ball.

Reece McAlear then pulled one back from McKinstry’s corner to give Ross’ side hope as the clock wore down, but the Bairns were to restore their two-goal advantage.

Lavery was fouled in the box by Ferguson, before putting his penalty past Ferguson to guarantee the three points.

Allan Campbell, Jake Hastie, Barry Maguire and David Turnbull have all been called up to the Scotland Under 21 squad.

The Motherwell quartet have been included in Scot Gemmill’s selection for forthcoming friendly matches with Mexico and Sweden.

All four are products of the club’s youth academy, further highlighting the opportunities talented young players are given at the club.

Campbell is already a regular at Under 21 level, having established himself as a crucial part of the midfield last campaign.

Hastie has earned his call after shooting to prominence in 2019, returning from a loan spell at Alloa Athletic to net five goals in eight games for Stephen Robinson’s side.

Maguire is currently out on loan at Championship side Queen of the South, getting valuable first-team minutes under his belt ahead of an expected return to push on next season.

Turnbull recently won a call for Scotland’s Under 20s, and has seen his form for Motherwell rewarded by stepping up another age level.

Scotland will play Mexico on March 22, before facing the Swedes three days later.

Motherwell are back in action in the SPFL Reserve League on Monday against Falkirk.

The match will be played at the Penny Cars Stadium in Airdrie. Kick off is at 2pm.
