Our prediction for this Scottish Premiership match:
Hibernian will be aiming to recover from a 1-0 loss to Rangers when they take on Motherwell on day 7 of the new Premiership campaign. The Hibbs defeated St Johnstone 2-0 in their last home game, which is surely fuelling fans with optimism ahead of Saturday’s encounter. Forward Kieron Bowie is sidelined with injury, while Australia forward Martin Boyle faces race against the clock to be fit for the match.
The Well, on the other hand, aim to build on a 2-1 win over St. Mirren and given their signs of improvement up front, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. You should know that both sides have managed to find the net in five of their last six meetings in the Scottish top flight. Defender Dan Casey is banned for the match, while all Ross Callachan, Jack Vale, Sam Nicholson, and Callum Slattery continue to miss with injuries for the away team.
Highlighted Team (Hibernian):
Founded in August 1875, Hibernian are the Scottish Premier League team that play home matches at Easter Road. The capacity of the venue is 20,421, and it was opened in 1893. The Hibs wear light green shirts with white sleeves and white shorts in home matches, while light grey is the dominant colour of their away kit.
Hibernian clinched their first Scottish league trophy back in the 1902/03 season, and they were the dominant force in Scottish football in the early 50s, securing three titles more from 1948 to 1952. The Easter Road outfit recorded their biggest win on September 3, 1881, with the team rolling over Black Watch Highlanders 22-1.
In February 1961, the Hibs suffered the biggest defeat in the club's history as they were beaten by Airdrie 11-1. Hibernian and Hearts face each other in the Edinburgh derby. The rivalry between the two clubs is considered one of the oldest rivalries in world football.
