Hibernian and Heart of Midlothian FC are promising the game of the day in the Scottish Premiership. 1st-placed Hearts are looking to end their 75-year league title drought, but Hibernian, who seek a championship round finish, threaten their lead at the top. Let’s get into this match prediction!
The visitors, who’ve lost only one league game, are flying high once more after winning three games in a row for the second time this season. They beat Celtic 2-1, cruised past Falkirk 2-0, and capped that run with a well-deserved win over Rangers. That run now sees Hearts six points clear at the top, although 2nd-place Celtic have a game in hand.
The home side, meanwhile, has picked up only four points in the last five games after three losses, one win, and a draw in their latest game to Dundee United (1-1). Hibernian’s slump in recent games has a lot to do with their offensive struggles, especially against the lineup of well-organised teams they just faced.
Hibs failed to score against Rangers and Motherwell in that span, netted one goal against Celtic (a penalty) and Dundee. It was against Falkirk that Hibernian scored the remaining goals. With Hearts conceding the joint-fewest goals (14), Hibernian might fail to find the back of the net once again.

Our Hibernian vs Heart Of Midlothian FC Prediction
While both teams are gunning for all three points, our analysis points to a low-scoring affair. Hearts are arguably the best defensive team this season, and the outright best away from home. The Jam Tarts have conceded the joint fewest goals (14) and the lowest away (7). They also lead the league in tackles and interceptions per game.
Hibernian, who have struggled to score against organised teams in recent times, will have a very tough time creating chances against Hearts. Hence, our Hibernian vs Heart of Midlothian FC prediction is Under 2.5 Goals.
