The Perth side lifted the League Cup for the first time in February. On Sunday, they play St Mirren for a place in the Scottish Cup final, a competition the club has won once, in 2014, when Davidson was assistant boss. St Johnstone have lost only three of their 20 matches in 2021, beating Livingston in the League Cup final and pipping St Mirren on goal difference to make the top six in the Premiership. St Johnstone had a bumpy 30 minutes at Hampden before overwhelming Hibs 3-0 in the last four of the League Cup, while a Shaun Rooney header was enough to see off Livingston at the national stadium. "The players work well as a unit and have taken a lot of confidence from the success in the League Cup," said Davidson.
