On Friday night, Hibernian host Hamilton Academicals at Easter Road, as the home side look to maintain their position in the top-three of the SPL.
Hibs have picked up a respectable 15 points from their opening nine games of the season and are just six points behind league leaders Rangers. However, it has not all been positive for the home side, as a 3-0 defeat against reigning champions Celtic last time out means that they have won just once in their last four league outings.
To be fair to the team from the Scottish capital have faced both Glasgow giants in their last two league matches.
Hibs head into this clash with a highly inconsistent recent home record, as Jack Ross’ team have won just once in their previous six SPL matches at Easter Road.
Their most recent league outings on home soil have been high-scoring, as 13 of their last 15 league matches have produced over 2.5 goals.
Hamilton Academicals have enjoyed mixed fortunes in the SPL so far this season, picking up just seven points from their opening eight league games in the Scottish top-flight.
Last time out the Accies drew 1-1 with Dundee United, which means that they have won just one of their previous four matches in the Scottish top-flight. The result also means that the visitors have kept just one clean sheet in their opening eight matches of the SPL season.
Hamilton Academicals do not have the best away record in the league, as they have won just three of their previous eight matches on their travels in the SPL. Their recent away games in the Scottish top-flight have been relatively high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in three of their previous four matches.
Forebet predicts that Hibs will pick up a win in a high-scoring encounter to maintain their lofty position in the Scottish top-flight table.
