Our prediction for this Scottish Premiership match:
Fir Park will host Saturday’s football game between Motherwell and Hibernian, the two sides sitting in the opposite halves of the table. The Well aim to overtake Dundee United in fourth place, while the Hibs are stuck at the bottom with only nine points on their account. There are no fresh injury concerns in the home team, but all Callachan, McGinn, Nicholson, O’Donnell, and Slattery remain on the sidelines with injuries.
The visitors, on the other hand, head into the match following a thrilling 3-3 draw with Aberdeen. Hibernian are likely to stick to their attacking style of play and given Motherwell’s attacking potential at home, there is a big value in betting on over 2.5 goals. In their last meeting in the Premiership Motherwell defeated Hibernian 2-1. Josh O’Connor continues to miss out with injury, but the 20-year-old forward should be the only absentee in the away team.
Highlighted Team (Motherwell):
Motherwell are professional football club that compete in the Scotland Premiership. The Steelmen play home games at Fir Park, the stadium which can hold up to 13,677 spectators, wearing amber and claret shirts.
White, on the other hand, is the dominant colour of the club’s away kit. Founded in 1886, Motherwell won their first domestic trophy in the 1931/32 season, leaving Scottish giants Rangers and Celtic behind them in the standings. Speaking of the Scottish Cup, the Steelmen have two titles in the cup competition. In the 1951/52 season, Motherwell defeated Dundee 4-0 in the Scottish Cup final, with the team repeating the success 39 years later as they outplayed Dundee United 4-3 in the title game.
The likes of Hamilton Academical and Airdrieonians are regarded as the club’s bitterest rivals. The games between these clubs are known as the Lanarkshire derby. Hughie Ferguson is leading the club’s all-time goal-scoring chart as he netted 284 goals for the Steelmen in league matches.
