Hibernian

DWWDWW 📈

Hibernian are hoping to win again after their last result, a 1-3 Premiership triumph versus Dundee United.

In that game, Hibernian had 43% possession and 9 attempts at goal with 4 on target. For Hibernian, goals were scored by Mykola Kuharevich (18'), Kieron Bowie (90') and Junior Hoilett (100'). Dundee United had 8 attempts at goal with 2 on target. Ross Graham (6') was the scorer for Dundee United.

Their more recent scorelines show that quality has been evident in the Hibernian defence. Hibernian have given the opposition little, with the tally of goals that have gone in at their end over the course of their previous 6 clashes standing at 3. We will have to find out whether or not that trend can be sustained here.

A look at their previous results shows us that Hibernian:

• have not been beaten in the league by Hearts in their previous 3 games.
• have not been beaten in their last 7 home league matches.

💡 Prediction

We’re of the view that Hearts will have to play well to put one past this Hibernian team who we think will likely win and very possibly keep a clean sheet.

We’re therefore predicting a very even match with a 1-0 winning score for Hibernian at the end of the 90 minutes.

Should be a close one.
