St Johnstone won’t lose
St Johnstone have dominated Hibs in recent clashes between the two sides; they’ve won four of their last five encounters with Hibs, and have lost just once in their last six meetings. St Johnstone have no losses in their last three league games, they’ve conceded just one goal in those three games. Hibs, on the other hand, have lost their last five league games; they’ve also found it difficult to score goals, as they’ve managed just one goal in their last four games. Considering St Johnstone tend to play well against Hibs we are making the prediction they’ll take at least a point.
At least one side will fail to score
At least one side has failed to score in three of Hibs’s last four league games; this is not because of Hibs defence but because of their lack of goals. Hibs have struggled in front of goal, they’ve scored just one goal in their last four league games. In the same vein, at least one team blanked in five of St Johnstone’s last six games; this is due, in part, to their defence solidity. Although they lack goals too. St Johnstone have failed to score in four of their last six games, whilst conceding just once in their last three games. At least one of these teams should keep a clean sheet here.
It won’t be a game to remember
We’ve already established that these teams have found it difficult to find the net; it’s also fair to point out that their games have mostly been low scoring as a result of that. All of St Johnstone’s last five games have gone under 2.5, with just two total goals scored in their last three games. Also, encounters between these teams have mostly been on the low-scoring side; their last four meetings have actually seen under 1.5 goals scored. Considering the visitors have scored just once in their last four league games, a low-scoring game should be on the cards.

St Johnstone vs Hibs: Meet the teams
St Johnstone
St Johnstone’s three match unbeaten run ended at Celtic in the League Cup last weekend; they’ll hope to bounce back from that loss as Hibs come visiting. The hosts will fancy their chances against an equally struggling Hibs side; will Stevie May help his team get all three points?
Hibs
Hibs disappointed and impressed with equal measure over the past week; they defeated Rangers last weekend, only to fall to Ross County a couple of days later. Hibs have now lost all of their last five league games; they’ll look to Kyle Magennis, as top scorer Martin Boyle got a red card in their previous match.
