LiontipsHearts vs Motherwell. Prediction and bets on the match of the Scottish Championship
Command Analysis
Current form
Before the start of the championship, Hearts were considered a clear contender for a place in the top six, but the season is frankly failing. At the moment, Neil Critchley team occupies the penultimate place in the table with 17 points in the asset - sixth Motherwell has already moved ahead by 10 points, it will be almost impossible to win back such a handicap. In the last round, Hearts missed a victory over Ross County (2:2), allowing the opponent to score two goals in stoppage time and save a draw.
Disqualifications and injuries
Kent, Kingsley and Taylor are injured.
Interesting trends for betting
- Hearts have suffered just one defeat in their last five home games
- Hearts have beaten Motherwell in four of their last five home games
Probable line-up: Gordon - Forrester, Oyegoke, Rowles, Penrice - Grant, Baningime, Drummeh, Boyce, Spittal - Wilson.
Current form
Motherwell hardly seriously expected to join the fight for a place in the top six and European cups before the start of the championship – in terms of player selection, Stuart Kettlewell team was inferior to many competitors. However, for now the "steelmakers" look more than worthy and occupy sixth place in the table, three points ahead of seventh-placed Hibernian and having a game in hand. In the last round, Motherwell drew an honorable 2:2 with Rangers, but the series without victories lasted to three matches.
Disqualifications and injuries
Robinson is injured.
Interesting trends for betting
- Motherwell have not won in their last three matches – a defeat and two draws
- Motherwell have conceded goals in their last four matches
Probable line-up: Oxborough - Wilson, Blaney, Gordon, Casey, Kaleta - Miller, Halliday, Paton - Maswankhize, Stamatepoulos.

2.39Tip and bets
Hearts are in a very difficult position, they are in the penultimate place in the table – the hosts are simply obliged to improve in the near future, especially since they have the potential for this. Motherwell is not an easy opponent, but in terms of selection of players, the steelworkers are significantly inferior, and have also looked unattractive lately, it makes sense to give preference to the favorite.
We think that the visitors have no chance. The forecast is a victory for Hearts . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.89
Bet on total
Hearts will undoubtedly be in the mood for victory today and there is no doubt that the hosts will attack in force in the first half. It is obvious that it will be almost impossible for the visitors to keep a clean sheet, Motherwell are not particularly reliable in defense and regularly concede at Tynecastle Park. At the same time, the Steelworkers are certainly determined to stay in the top six, and they can respond with one goal.
Bet - both teams to score. This bet is offered for 1.75
Bet on corners
Hearts are the favourites and will probably spend the entire 90 minutes attacking - the home team should win confidently on corners.
Bet - Asian handicap (-2) on corners at Hearts. This bet is offered at 1.85
