Hearts - St. Mirren predictions

The home team is the obvious choice for anyone looking to bet on favourites. The match is not completely one-sided, though, which is why you may actually get worthwhile returns.

The odds are stacked heavily against St. Mirren here, and we can’t see them winning this match. Hearts are heavily favoured by most betting predictions – so much so that an away bet is priced at around 4.80.

Hearts are coming off from an away win in the last round. They grabbed an early lead against St. Johnstone and never gave up their dominance of the proceedings, showing a lot of confidence despite a low margin and a 1:2 win.

St. Mirren performed far above even the most optimistic of expectations last round. Their matchup against Rangers was largely considered a completely one-sided affair before kick-off – and not in their favour, either. However, after an indecisive first half, they scored several consecutive goals and recorded a stunning 0:2 victory that completely upsets most predictions.

With 9 goals in their previous 3 Premiership matches, Hearts’s attacking players have been seeing a lot of success and top bookmakers online are backing them to continue the trend.

The previous two matches St. Mirren played at home ended without much excitement. Neither featured more than a single goal.

It will be interesting to see if St. Mirren manage to beat this odds in this, the second clash with Hearts this season. The first time around they lost with to a 1-point difference.

This will no doubt be an exciting match because both squads will be able to come out in full force. No players have been sidelined due to injury or suspension, and this goes for both sides.

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 1.96. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.
