Prediction: 1-1
Hibernian
Sunday’s Edinburg derby between Hearts and Hibernian will bring down the curtain on day 5 of the new Premiership campaign. Hearts have been performing above expectations on their return to the Scottish elite division, with the team sitting in second position ahead of Matchday 5. The newcomers aim to give fans yet another reason for celebration, and they are likely to adopt an attack-minded approach against Hibernian. In-form Northern Ireland attacker Liam Boyce is widely expected to lead the line for the hosts.
The Hibs, on the other hand, aim to retain first place in the table. Hibernian have been impressive in front of goal at the start of the season, and, taking everything into account, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. The good news for the visitors is that key attacker Kevin Nisbet returned to training ahead of the Edinburg derby.
Highlighted Player (Liam Boyce):
Liam Boyce is a Northern Ireland international who plays for Burton Albion in the League One. Boyce was born in Belfast on April 8, 1991 and he started his senior career at Cliftonville.

Speaking of his international career, Boyce made his Northern Ireland debut against Scotland on February 9, 2011, coming as a substitute for Niall McGinn.
Six years later, on June 2, 2017, he scored his first goal for the Northern Ireland national team in a 1-0 win over New Zealand. Liam Boyce’s main position is centre-forward, but he is capable of producing fine performances as a second striker as well.
