Hibernian look to rediscover consistency after collecting just one win from their last four league outings, but with Hearts brimming with confidence following a 2-1 win over Rangers, our prediction leans toward a 1-0 away win. At Easter Road, the Hibs average 1.50 goals scored and allow only 0.75, backed by an impressive 50% clean-sheet ratio. Their xGA at home (just 0.95) suggests defensive stability, although their overall form remains mixed. The squad depth will be tested as Bushiri, Chaiwa and Obita are all away on international duty, removing valuable rotation options for the hosts.
The Jambos head into this derby in excellent shape, sitting top of the table after the victory over Rangers. They’ve won three straight and boast strong metrics on both ends of the pitch, conceding only 0.80 goals per game overall. Away from home, they remain efficient with 1.60 points per game and a 40% clean-sheet rate, supported by solid expected numbers (xGA 1.21). The visitors have no fresh injuries, while Pierre Kabore is on AFCON duty, though he is not a regular starter.
As only 40% of H2H meetings went over 2.5, this betting option should definitely be considered. Additionally, Away Win and BTTS - No bets seem tempting as Hearts look unstoppable at the moment.
This Scottish Premiership match will be played on Saturday 27 December 2025 at 12:30.
