Match announcement
Hibernian
ScotlandCurrent form
Before the start of the season, Hibernian was considered a clear contender for a place in the top six – the selection of players allowed them to count on fighting for a ticket to the European Cups. However, David Gray team has not fully justified this status, occupying only the seventh line in the table with 26 points. Hibs are only one point behind sixth-placed St. Mirren, so they can break into the top six today. In the last round, Hibernian took points from Rangers, drawing 3:3 with their opponent at home – the unbeaten streak thus extended to six matches.

2.89Tip and bets
Hibernian have found their form recently, going on a six-game unbeaten run – they even managed to take points from Rangers in the last round. At the same time, Hibs are currently outside the top six and will certainly strive to build on their success against their direct competitor. The hosts definitely have a chance of winning – Motherwell are inferior in terms of player selection, and in their last three away matches the steelworkers have earned only one point.
We think that the visitors have no chance. The betting tip is a victory for Hibernian . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.65
Bet on total
Hibernian will undoubtedly be in a very determined mood today and no other result than victory will satisfy the hosts. It is obvious that Hibs will throw a lot of forces into the attack and Motherwell have very few chances to play to zero - even Rangers got three goals in their goal at Easter Road in the last match. At the same time, the steelworkers know how to play second fiddle, are also in good shape and are quite capable of responding with one goal.
Bet - both teams to score. This bet is offered for 1.79
Bet on corners
Hibernian are favourites and will certainly play first number - the hosts should win confidently on corners.
Bet - Asian handicap (-2) on corners for Hibernian. This bet is offered with odds of 1.81
