Ross County’s double chance
First of all, we would like to point out that Hibernian have won just two of their last seven games across all competitions; to be fair, those two wins were in the Scottish Cup against teams in lower tiers of Scottish football. Hibs are without a win in their last six league games, and they lost four of those six games. On the other hand, Ross County have held their own in recent games; they have no losses in their last four games. Considering both teams’ form, we’re making the prediction that Ross County will not lose this match.
Goals at both end
This pick is mostly based on the way both teams have conceded goals, especially recently; Hibernian have conceded in four of their last five games, and they allowed seven goals in that stretch. Just like Hibernian, Ross County have not been able to keep the goals out; they have conceded in all of their last 12 games. Conversely, Ross County have scored their fair share of goals; they found the back of the net in their last five, and 11 of their last 12 games. Considering how both teams concede, coupled with the fact that both teams scored in 11 of Ross County’s last 12 games, both teams should score.
We will see goals
Our final prediction for this game is on the over/under goals market. Ross County have been involved in a lot of high-scoring games, especially in the league; six of their last eight league games went above the 2.5 goal mark. Although most of Hibernian’s recent games have been on the low-scoring side, clashes between these sides have mostly been high-scoring. Six of the last five meetings between Hibs and Ross County went over 2.5. For this reason, we’re predicting a high-scoring affair.
