Bitesize Prediction: Motherwell vs Hibernian – 01/08/23
Competition: Scottish Premiership
Market: Both teams to score
Rating: 10/11 @
Motherwell will host Hibernian at Fir Park.
Starting with the hosts, with Motherwell perhaps last seen opening 2023 with a 1-1 draw at Livingston, the Steelmen find themselves in the midst of what has been a domestic nightmare. Although they impressed many across Scotland last season by securing a fifth-place finish, Steven Hammell's men have certainly come down to earth this time around. Holding just a three-point buffer to slip to the foot of the Premiership table, the Lanarkshire-based side have secured just one top-flight victory in their last 10 attempts. With this extended blip stretching back to October 4, Motherwell should also be worried about their dismal form on home soil. In fact, Sunday's hosts have remarkably picked up just one Premiership point at Fir Park in their previous five appearances.
As far as the visitors are concerned, while Hibernian might have managed to win a well-deserved 4-0 home game against Livingston last month, it seems like it was just a small blow thumbs up for the Edinburgh-based team. Opening 2023 with an abysmal display as they were finally hit with a 3-0 drumming at the hands of Hearts, there is still plenty of pressure on Lee Johnson's shoulders. Marking their return to the Premiership on December 15 with an action-packed 3-2 loss to Rangers, the former Sunderland boss will have a real headache from his side's rather glaring problems at the back. Losing nine of their previous 11 top-flight encounters - a streak dating back to October 8 - the Hibs have also had 10 strikes since returning from the World Cup break.
