Hibernian - Aberdeen predictions

Hibernian are easily the favourites in the match this Sunday, but we wouldn’t call a Home Win bet at the odds of 2.06 safe, exactly. They are more likely to win than not, but Aberdeen may have a few tricks up their sleeve yet.

The odds are stacked heavily against Aberdeen here, and we can’t see them winning this match. Hibernian are heavily favoured by most betting predictions – so much so that an away bet is priced at around 3.61.

Hibernian are coming on the back of an unsatisfying away defeat in the previous round. Top online sportsbooks priced their victory as the most likely outcome, but they never quite managed to pull ahead in the first half. After falling behind in the latter half of the game, they had to settle for a narrow 2:1 loss.

The previous round of the Premiership saw Aberdeen win 1:0 in a favourable home matchup against St. Johnstone. That said, the pre-match betting odds for them to win were 5.62, so the fact that the game was a relatively close call is somewhat surprising.

Hibernian haven’t ended a single one of their previous 7 matches without getting their name on the score board. It’s a remarkable bit of consistency if nothing else.

Top bookmakers online are offering short odds on Aberdeen winning to Nill because they haven’t conceded a single goal for the past 3 matches.

The home team already displayed their dominance earlier in the season. They boast a decisive victory over Aberdeen, leaving no doubt about who the favourites are. That’s why the odds are fairly representative, though upsets are always possible.

Despite being seen as underdogs by most online bookmakers, the visiting team will be able to give their all this Sunday. They have no reported injuries or suspensions going in, so at least they’ll be able to rely on their best players and strategies.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet is an easy tip to offer – it’s a fairly probable outcome with betting odds priced at a comfortable 2.10. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.
