Fresh off wins in their respective midweek continental games, Hibernian and Motherwell will look to start their 2026-27 Scottish Premiership campaign on a high when they face off on matchday one. This match at Easter Road in Edinburgh between the ‘Hibs’ and the ‘Steelmen’ is likely to be a close affair with our prediction backing goals from both teams.
Hibernian finished fifth last season with 57 points (W15, D12, L11) and only four points behind Motherwell (W16, D13, L9). Both teams qualified for this season’s Conference League second qualifying round.
The ‘Hibs’ are coming off a 4-1 home win over Malisheva on Thursday, helping them overturn a 2-0 loss in the reverse leg in the UEFA Conference League. That result helped them advance in the qualifiers, while landing a third win in the last four games.
Starting well at home could be crucial for their season, as Hibernian ended last campaign with three consecutive league defeats at this venue.
Motherwell won 3-0 away at Torshavn on Thursday, advancing in the Conference League with a 5-0 aggregate win. These results raise the spirits in the away camp after the visitors lost their two off-season friendlies.
The ‘Steelmen’ have also lost two of their last four league games (W1, D1), while four defeats in their last six trips (W2) in the Premiership underline their challenge here.

Three of the last four head-to-head games at this venue have seen goals from both teams, and that trend could continue here. Our Hibernian vs Motherwell prediction is BTTS.
