Hibs won’t win it
Hibernian have no wins in their last three clashes with Hearts, they’ve won just one of their last six meetings too. It’s even more interesting that Hearts have dominated Hibs in recent encounters at this stadium; The Jam Tarts are unbeaten in their last four visits, and they’ve won three of those four games. Also, Hearts have been flying high, they’ve won five of their last six games in all competitions; considering Hibs have won just one of their last four games, Hearts should take at least one point from this game.
At least one side will blank
Both teams have not had too much trouble finding the back of the net, especially recently. Hearts have been one of the highest scoring teams in the Premiership this season; they’ve scored in all of their last six games. It’s worth mentioning that only the top two teams have scored more goals than Hearts this season. In like manner, Hibernian have found the net in seven of their last nine games across all competitions. Also, encounters between these sides have seen their fair share of goals; both teams have scored in five of their last seven clashes. With this in mind, we are making the prediction that both teams will score here.
Goals not order of the day
Although both teams have scored their fair share of goals, their recent games have mostly been low-scoring; three of Hibernian’s last four games went below the 2.5 goal mark. In the same vein, eight of Hearts’ last 11 games in all competitions went under 2.5. Furthermore, clashes between these two at this stadium have mostly been on the low-scoring side; they scored less than three goals seven of the last 10 times Hearts came visiting. With this in mind, our final pick for this game is under 2.5 goals.
