St. Johnstone - Hibernian predictions

St. Johnstone will likely try to secure a draw at most. They are outclassed by Hibernian, plain and simple, and most bookies online agree with this – after all, the betting odds on a home win for this match are 4.11.

Though Hibernian are the stronger team between the two, we wouldn’t call an away bet at the odds of 1.96 a safe one. It’s shaping up to be quite an exciting match.

The 0:2 result of last round’s match against Kilmarnock at McDiarmid Park was fairly unsurprising. St. Johnstone went into the game as clear underdogs, fell behind in the first half, and proceeded to endure a crushing 0:2 defeat.

Hibernian’s previous away game was quite uneventful, all things considered. Playing at Motherwell, the scores were tied at half time and carried over into a 1:1 draw. Hopefully, we’ll see some more excitement in round 34.

The visitors’ main concern will be cutting down the concession rate. They conceded more than 5 times in their latest 3 matches, and bucking the trend will be a great step in the right direction.

With an away win priced at 1.96, Hibernian are marked as the favourites in this matchup. However, it’s worth noting that they lost their previous engagement with St. Johnstone – one in which they were the home team.

With no players out due to injury or suspension, both teams will have their full lineups ready for a thrilling showdown.

An Over 2.5 Goals is a great bet if you like staying on the safe side. The betting value for this market is strong compared even to the 1.99, which makes this an easy betting prediction to make.
