Motherwell
- Motherwell have failed to win their last 5 matches, losing 5.
- Motherwell have won 1, drawn 1 and lost 2 of their 4 home games in the Premiership 2026/2027, and scored just 3 home goals this season.
Hearts
- Hearts have won 1, drawn 2 and lost 2 in their last 5.
- Hearts have won 1, drawn 1 and lost 3 of their 5 away games in the Premiership 2026/2027, scoring 1.40 and conceding 2.60 goals on average.
Head-to-Head
- The Steelmen have failed to beat Hearts in their last 2 home games - The Championship Round 2026 clash finished 1-1 on this ground - and they have won only 1 of their 4 games at Fir Park this season.
- Motherwell boss Alfred Johansson has kept a possession-first, progressive model, with the Steelmen a possession team who like to pass the ball from the back and work the half-spaces to create openings.
Key Players
But James Wilson is the main man for Hearts, with 3 goals in 6, and his pace and power can punish Motherwell if they are caught out.
Betting Insights
- Hearts are the clear favorites at 2.12, ahead of 3.0 for the home side and 3.75 for a draw, and that probably reflects the superiority of the visitors.
- Over 2.5 goals at 1.62 looks a good option, although both teams to score at 1.53 is short enough to leave alone.
Prediction
- But Motherwell will not make this easy for Hearts and their contrasting styles could lead to a free-flowing rather than a cagey game.
- Hearts are the likelier side to get the win, but we'll be on the draw in the draw no bet market for small stakes because the price on the away win is just not worth the risk.
