Our prediction for this Scottish Premiership match:
Motherwell and Hibernian square off against each other at Fir Park in what is expected to be a close Premiership game. The Well quickly bounced back from a 2-0 loss to Airdrieonians, with the team beating Annan 2-0 in their last League Cup game. Motherwell are likely to stick to their attacking style of play, and we are positive that they will find the net in Sunday’s clash. Summer signing Justin Amaluzor is pushing for a start after finding the net in the League Cup win over Annan.
The Hibs, on the other hand, did well to beat Santa Coloma in the Europa Conference League qualifiers, and given their attacking potential, both teams to score betting option should be considered. New signing Daniel Mackay could make his Hibernian debut in the Premier League against Motherwell. In their last meeting in a competitive match Hibernian and Motherwell played out a 2-2 draw in 90 minutes.
