Saturday's Scottish Premiership predictions including Hearts vs. Hibernian

Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's Scottish Premiership fixtures, including Hearts vs. Hibernian.


Celtic vs. Kilmarnock (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Celtic will aim to continue their unbeaten start to the Scottish Premiership on Saturday when they host eighth-placed Kilmarnock.

The visitors are only sitting outside of the relegation zone due to goal difference, adding plenty of pressure on this particular fixture.

We say: Celtic 4-0 Kilmarnock


Kilmarnock might have picked up a surprise victory when they last faced the Hoops, but it is unlikely that will take place this time.

Celtic have been too strong for most teams this season, particularly offensively, and that should be the case this weekend.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 2.5 goals.

Dundee vs. Ross County (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Ross County have the opportunity to lift themselves out of the Scottish Premiership relegation zone on Saturday when they travel to face Dundee.

Both teams are level on points with only goal difference keeping the Dark Blues above the visitors, with plenty on the line in this one.

We say: Dundee 2-1 Ross County


There is very little between these two teams so far this season and that is reflected in their league positions, which should lead to a close match.

However, Ross County's poor defensive performances throughout the campaign could be their undoing here, leading to a Dundee victory.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Hearts vs. Hibernian (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Hearts will look to extend their two-match winning streak on Saturday when they host Hibernian in the Edinburgh derby, who are unbeaten in their past five in all competitions.

Both teams find themselves in the top half of the Scottish Premiership, and they have the opportunity to continue putting pressure on those above them here.

We say: Hearts 2-2 Hibernian


There is very little to split these two teams in terms of the performances that they have delivered this season which should lead to a close encounter.

Both teams will believe that they can get a result, but that could lead to them holding out for a draw for derby day.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Livingston vs. Motherwell (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Livingston will be hosting Motherwell on Saturday in their latest Scottish Premiership match, with both teams currently struggling for form.

With the hosts sat just above the relegation zone there is plenty of pressure on them to turn things around, meanwhile, the Steelmen could break into the top four with a victory.

We say: Livingston 0-2 Motherwell


Motherwell might be struggling for goals in away games, but Livingston's issues defensively could lead to the visitors changing that.

The Steelmen will head into the game as favourites, and if they are able to perform to their best then they would be expected to take all three points.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.
