Motherwell return home determined to respond after a disappointing 1-0 defeat to Falkirk, with the hosts still firmly focused on securing a Conference League place. Given Hearts' attacking potential, our prediction leans toward a 2-2 draw. The Well have been inconsistent recently, taking just 1.00 point per game from their last ten matches, though their home defensive record has been solid. Motherwell have kept clean sheets in 67% of their recent home fixtures and concede only 1.00 goal per game at Fir Park. With no fresh injury concerns, they should field a strong lineup.
Hearts, meanwhile, continue their surprise push towards the Premier League title after an impressive comeback 2-1 victory over Rangers. The Jambos are in excellent form, winning seven of their last ten matches and averaging 2.20 points per game. However, their away form is less convincing, with just one win in four road matches and no away clean sheets during that run. Claudio Braga and Stephen Kingsley are both doubts for the visitors.
As both sides average high total-goal numbers recently, we are tempted to bet on Over 2.5 goals, alongside Draw and Both Teams to Score (Hearts have seen BTTS in 75% of recent away games).
This Scottish Premiership match will be played on Saturday 9 May 2026 at 20:00.
