Inverness CT
- Second-placed Inverness CT and relegation-threatened Kelty Hearts go head-to-head on Saturday in a contest that could decide whether the home side go up or the visitors go down.
- Scott Kellacher’s side are very consistent and have been chasing promotion since he took over in October 2024 with his proactive, fast-paced style.
- They are formidable on home turf, however, having lost once, drawn four times and won 11 of their 16 games at the Caledonian Stadium in League One 2025/2026.
Kelty Hearts
- Kelty Hearts have had a much more disappointing season in 10th spot on 26 points from 33 games, but Tam O’Ware has certainly got them better organised since taking over as manager in May 2025.
- They have won two, drawn two and lost one of their last five, including a 2-1 win at Hamilton Academical and a 3-1 home victory over Montrose.
Head-to-Head
- Kelty Hearts have won just four of their 16 away games in League One 2025/2026 (W4, D4, L8).
- Both teams have 1 win each and 3 draws in their last five meetings in all competitions (W1 each, D3).
Key Players
- Zimba has scored three goals in CT’s last seven, giving them a sharp edge in the front third with Bavidge on 10 from 32 up top.
- Diack has six goals from 14 appearances for Kelty Hearts and is Kelty Hearts' top scorer, so he can punish CT’s defence on the counter-attack.
Betting Insights
- The bettors favour Inverness CT for a home win at 1.19, but 1.51 for Over 2.5 goals and 2.1 for both teams to score look like better options.
- Inverness CT average 2.19 goals per game at home in League One 2025/2026, scoring 35 and conceding only 11, but they are more likely to see off Kelty Hearts this time around after failing to do so in their last three home games against Kelty Hearts.
Prediction
Kelty Hearts have found some form and momentum in their attacking play, so we side with the second-placed side in League One 2025/2026 to win a goal-heavy game on Saturday.
