Prediction: 0-1
Hibernian
Hope CBD Stadium will host Saturday’s football game between Hamilton and Hibernian, the two teams with entirely different ambitions in the 2020/21 Premiership campaign. Hibernian are eyeing a place in European competitions, while Hamilton’s main goal is to secure the elite division survival. The Hibbs defeated Motherwell 3-0 at the weekend, with the team putting an end to their three-game winless run in the Premier League.
Hibernian are eyeing their seventh away win of the season, and it is no wonder bookies see them as favourites to win the CBD Stadium clash. Fit-again Wales international Christian Doidge is pushing for a start after scoring as a substitute in the triumph over Motherwell. The Accies did well to beat Kilmarnock thanks to Callachan’s goal from the penalty spot, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry against the Hibbs, who are enjoying a very successful season.
