Prediction: 1-1
Hearts
All eyes will be on Easter Road when Hibernian and Hearts face each other in a highly-anticipated Scottish Cup game. The Hibs have been involved in some high-scoring games of late, and they are likely to adopt yet another attack-minded approach against Hearts. Both McKirdy and Doyle-Hayes are pushing for recalls to the starting XI, while the opposition back-line should have Kevin Nisbet at bay as the 25-year-old scored five goals in total in the last two league fixtures.
The Jambos, on the other hand, looked sharp in front of goal in a 5-0 crushing of Aberdeen, and, taking everything into account, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on both teams to score. As for the visiting side, all Boyce, Gordon, Baningime, Halkett, and Mackay-Steven have been struggling with injuries at the start of 2023.
