As Heart of Midlothian dey chase their first league title since 1960, all eyes dey on Tynecastle Park for tonight match against Rangers for the Scottish Premiership.
The Edinburgh boys don get brilliant campaign so far, and now dem want finish the job well well. But Rangers still dey for the race, and under Danny Röhl dem don secure some crucial results.
Hearts get plenty injury wahala. Craig Gordon, Oisin McEntee, Tomas Magnusson, Calem Nieuwenhof, Ageu, Finlay Pollock, and Cameron Devlin all dey possible doubt for this one. For Rangers, Tuur Rommens, Bailey Rice, and Ryan Naderi fit miss out, but Röhl get plenty options.
For Hearts, not to lose almost as important as to win when dem face off tonight. Rangers want get result, but dem no fit afford to lose. We fit see dem cancelling each other out here.
We expect goals for this match, even if dem no fit separate after 90 minutes. Three of their last meetings see both teams score, and there be six goals when dem clash for February. It go be fascinating evening for Edinburgh.
Only Livingston get more BTTS games than Rangers for 2025/26. E don happen for 21 Teddy Bears games so far, including their last four. Hearts don be solid defensively this campaign, but dem fit get at – both teams score for their last three.
We expect both teams to get on the scoresheet at Tynecastle Park, as both managers fit create problems for their opponents.
With few games remaining, the Scottish Premiership golden boot still dey up for grabs. One player wey go fancy his chances na Hearts star Claudio Braga. He don record 14 for SPL so far, and e dey only three behind current leader Tawanda Maswanhise.
We dey tip am to add to his tally for this one. The 26-year-old Portuguese forward don score 17 goals across all competitions and don be star performer for the hosts. E no find net for his last clash against Hibs, but e score for two consecutive games before that. Braga don record some assists this season as well, so e good at creating scoring opportunities.
Other potential goalscorers na Lawrence Shankland and Youssef Chermiti, but we dey tip Hearts’ number 10.
The last time neither Celtic nor Rangers win the SPL title na way back for 1985 – Braga and Co now dey out to change that. That achievement now dey within touching distance.
