The Scottish Premiership is somewhere in the middle of the competition process and as it usually happens, the strongest Scottish teams ever stood out the most. The duo from Glasgow, Celtic and Rangers. Other clubs are fighting for better positions, and among them are Hibernian and Hearts, teams that also have a great tradition.

Hibernian is in 6th place and their main goal is to stay in the top half of the table and thus gain the right to participate in the Championship group. In the last round they lost against St. Johnstone on the road, but they kept a 3-point advantage over their followers.

Hearts is a bit better this season with 29 points won and 3rd place in the table. They won the last two matches, and one of them happened on the road against Celtic, which is certainly one of the better results of the club in recent history.

Hibernian vs Hearts pick: UNDER 2.5 GOALS

There have been 2 or fewer goals in Hibernian's last two matches. In the matches of this team, on average, so far during the season, a little less than 3 goals were scored on average. Hearts' matches are one of the most ineffective in the league, in fact, the fewest goals were scored in their matches, only 34.

That's less than 2 goals on average per match. 5 of the last 6 Hearts matches ended with 2 or less goals, so we expect another low scoring duel. Under 2.5 goals is the best option for this match
