A place in the 2026-27 Conference League is at stake in this match between Hibs and Motherwell.  Hibs begin this final game of the Championship group in fifth place, a point and a place behind the visitors.  Our match prediction believes Hibs can win this game and finish fourth.

Wednesday was a big night for Hibs as they won 2-1 at Rangers in their penultimate league fixture. That was their second successive win after beating Fallkirk at home last weekend. They have won eight home league games this season. Their last two have been lost but they were to Hearts and Celtic.

Hibs are unbeaten in their last two home games against Falkirk but are yet to beat Motherwell this season.

Motherwell are in the final Conference League qualification position but can't climb any higher in the table. Their European qualification hopes suffered a major blow on Wednesday with a 3-2 home loss to second-placed Celtic.

The loss made it three games without a win for Motherwell with just one point being earned. They really are hanging onto fourth place as only one of their last nine matches has been won. Five of their 18 away league games have been won but six have ended in defeat.

Our Hibernian vs Motherwell Prediction

Hibs must win this match to qualify for next season's Conference League. They boosted their chances of finishing in the top four by winning 2-1 at Rangers on Wednesday evening. Both of their last two league fixtures have been won.

Motherwell are just a point above Hibs in the league table and only need to avoid defeat in this game to qualify for the Conference League. Their form is poor though with one win in nine and a single point earned in the last three league fixtures, Our Hibernian v Motherwell prediction is Hibernian wins.
