St. Mirren vs Hibernian Prediction & Betting Tips (4 August)

Home matches has not exactly been a fortress for St. Mirren in recent times, with St. Mirren suffering four defeats in their previous five top-flight home matches. As if that wasn’t a worrying enough statistic on its own, it should also be pointed out that title-chasing Hibernian are currently on an severyal winnings against their rivals in the Premiership.

Under 3.5 goals has been the order of the day in 16 consecutive St. Mirren home games at the top table of the Premiership, with a home win success contributing to this sequence. For their part, Hibernian have played 24 times at this level since they last featured in a contest containing six goals or more, so the net should bulge no more than five times here.

Over the course of their most recent 12 matches at the top table of Spanish football, St. Mirren have been involved in just three encounters in which the net has bulged at both ends. Such an occurrence has been similarly rare in top-flight fixtures involving Hibernian, happening only once in seven attempts, so at least one of the two keepers should emerge with a clean sheet.
