Competition: Scottish Premiership
Market: Hibernian win
Odds: 7/10 @ Pribet
Hoping to find a welcomed Premiership boost on Wednesday night, Hibernian will welcome Dundee United to Edinburgh.
Starting with the hosts, putting in a gritty performance at Easter Road over the weekend as they snatched a 0-0 stalemate against Rangers, Hibernian will now have their sights set on securing just a second Premiership victory since opening the New Year. Suffering Scottish Cup frustration on January 17th as they slumped to a 1-0 loss away at Championship outfit Dunfermline, David Gray’s men have recorded just a sole win from any of their previous five appearances across all competitions. Likewise, recording just a single strike in almost 300 minutes of acton, Hibs have also failed to find any kind of clinical edge. Nevertheless, signing off 2025 with a routine 2-0 win against Aberdeen, Gray’s side should be smelling a golden opportunity in midweek. The Edinburgh-based outfit should also be excited by their extended success at Easter Road. Including a stellar 3-2 victory against leading title contenders Hearts on December 27th, Hibernian are unbeaten in their last five showdowns in front of their own supporters.
As for the visitors, while Dundee United might have sprung a real upset last season as they secured a fourth-place finish among Scotland’s elite, Jim Goodwin’s men have drastically failed to find a similar level this time around. Last seen over the weekend putting in another worrying display as they slumped to a 3-0 drumming at home against Hearts, the Terrors could have a battle on their hands in the race to keep hold of their Premiership status in 2026. Getting the New Year underway with an infamous 1-0 loss against arch-rivals Dundee FC, Wednesday’s guests have lost their previous three consecutive Premiership showdowns by an aggregate score of 8-0. Failing to notch a single top-flight strike since opening the New Year, Goodwin’s side have also shown some extended issues away from Tannadice Park. In fact, the former Aberdeen boss has seen his struggling squad muster just a sole win on their travels since the end of August.
