Both Teams to Score
In the first Edinburgh vs Kelty Hearts prediction, we are tipping both sides to score. For a price of 1.57 to score at the time of publishing this preview, the implied probability for BTTS is 63.67%.

Edinburgh to Score First
In the final Edinburgh vs Kelty Hearts prediction, we are tipping Edinburgh to open the scoring. They have 7 points in their last five, a form that trashes how Kelty Hearts performed in as many games. The visitors have 5 points in the last five outings.
