Competition: Scottish Premiership

Market: Hibernian win

Odds: 10/11 @ 1xBet

Hoping to extend their buffer in the top-six chase on Saturday afternoon, Hibernian will welcome Aberdeen to Easter Road.

Starting with the hosts, while Hibernian might have suffered late heartbreak away at Ross County last weekend as they eventually had to settle for a 1-1 stalemate, David Gray’s side are enjoying an extended flurry. Signing off 2024 with a 1-0 victory at home against Kilmarnock, the Greens are unbeaten in each of their previous nine consecutive appearances across all competitions – a run that stems all the way back to December 7th. Skyrocketing their way back into the top-six, Hibs will also be excited to make a return to Easter Road here. Last seen in Edinburgh extending on their Scottish Cup adventure as they clinched a routine 3-0 romp against Clydebank, Hibernian have not suffered a single defeat in front of their own supporters since returning from November’s international break. It should also be highlighted, Gray’s side have registered 10 points from their last four Premiership showdowns in Edinburgh. Enjoying their most fruitful spell of the season, Hibs should be smelling the chance to make another statement here.

As for the visitors, while Aberdeen might have enjoyed a sensational start to proceedings, Jimmy Thelin’s men have come crashing back down to earth in a worrying fashion. Last seen putting in another nightmare display as they slumped to a 3-0 drumming at home against St. Mirren, the Dons find themselves at the heart of a real struggle. Suffering another 3-0 loss against Rangers on January 15th, Saturday’s guests have come tumbling down the Premiership standings. In fact, on what has quickly become an infamous rut, Aberdeen are without a win from any of their previous 13 consecutive Premiership appearances – a rut that stems all the way back to November 9th. Likewise, the former Elfsborg boss has seen his struggling squad put just a single point on the board from any of their eight top-flight showdowns. Given what has been a huge recent gulf in class between Saturday’s opponents, Aberdeen should be bracing themselves for another tricky test at Easter Road.

Bet: Hibernian 10/11 to beat Aberdeen in Saturday’s Scottish Premiership battle @ 1xBet
