Our prediction for this Scottish Premiership match:
Hibernian and St. Johnstone face each other in a highly-anticipated Scottish Premier League game at Easter Road. The Hibs have yet to suffer a loss in the new season, and, no doubt, they are high on spirits ahead of the visit of St. Johnstone. All Jamie Murphy, Christian Doidge, Sean Mackie, and Melker Hallberg are out of contention with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team.
The Saints, on the other hand, desperately needed a win against Aberdeen, and they managed to get one, with the team putting an end to their five-game winless run. Hibernian, though, are more of a team than St. Johnstone, and we predict that the hosts are going to pick up all three points from the match. As for the visiting side, all Liam Gordon, Cameron MacPherson and Craig Bryson are out of contention with injuries.
