Last Game: Dundee 2-3 Hearts
Saturday, February 3 at 3pm in Scottish Premiership

We said: St Johnstone 1-2 Hearts

St Johnstone have enjoyed a productive unbeaten run in the Premiership of late, but the visit of Hearts on Wednesday night will be the toughest test of 2024 to date. The Jambos have scored at least twice in their last six matches, and we expect that trend to continue here as Naismith's side record another victory. Read more.
