St. Mirren vs Hibernian Prediction: A draw will satisfy the two teams in this opener

The Scottish Premiership game will take place at Paisley 2021 Stadium, where St. Mirren will play Hibernian. This will be the first game of the season⛦ for the two sides; they will hope to have a decent start. Which team﷽ draws first blood?

St. Mirren

St. Mirren will hope for a better performance this season after finishing 5th place in the previous season. In 38 league matches, this team accumulated 47 points, scoring 46 times and conceding 52 goals in those encounters. However, they ended the season with a 3-0 defeat to league winners Celtic in a road encounter. 

Heading into this new season, St. Mirren's mജost recent encounter came against Valur in a European Conference League qualifier, which they won 4-1. St. Mirren have an unbeaten record of six games into this league opener, winning three and drawing three.&🐎nbsp;

Hibernian

Hibernian ended the previous season fighting to avoid relegation, and with just 46 points from 38 matches, they finished 8th. However, this team finished that season with a 1-1 draw with Livingston, scoring 52 goals while conceding 59. 

Entering into this league open🍃er, Hibernian’s last game came in the Scottish Cup, and in that encounter, they got four past Peterhead. Lewis Miller scored twice in that game, while Rudi Allan-Molotnikov and Nathan Moriah-Welsh also got on the scoresheet. Heading into this game, Hibernian won just one of their last three matches. 

Expert Betting Tips

There is much expected from these two sides this season, and I am confident they will step up their games. Mirren look like a very good side, especially at home. While Hibernian have been very strong in this fixture in past games, I do not see them losing this one. The two sides should focus on defensive play, and a draw should satisfy them here.
