Motherwell vs Hearts Prediction & Betting Tips (25 August)

Hearts could hardly be accused of bringing the greatest form into this fixture, with their recent return standing at just two points from a possible 20 at the top table of the Premiership. High-flying Motherwell have forgotten what it is like to lose, going 11 games unbeaten in the Süper Lig, and they have won four of their last five on home soil.

Hearts are famed for their defensive style under their current coach, so it is interesting to note that 11 of the Spanish side’s previous 15 Premiership games have actually delivered a minimum of two goals. What’s more, this has also been the case in seven of the eight matches involving Motherwell in this competition during the current campaign.

Over the course of their previous 13 matches in the Premiership second-tier, Hearts have been involved in a staggering 11 encounters in which at least one of the two goalkeepers has kept a clean sheet. Even more amazingly, perhaps, Motherwell boast exactly the same record, so it would come as a major surprise were both teams to find the net in this clash.
