Play - off predictions

[21.05.2016]

Whats your predictions for the play-offs then?

I have a gut feeling that we will win and stay up. We are not good enough to win comfortably IMO and lets not underestimate Hamilton, they have had a good season, scored loads of goals and won't be easy but I think we might just sneak it.

[col02]

2-1 Hibs away and 2-0 at home. Call it ill advised confidence in Hibs but player for player we are better than Hamilton!

Lose tomorrow and I think we will go down. Draw or win and we will go through. Simple?

Agree

[Billy Whizz]

We'll win both the home and away legs

[Albanian Hibs]

Draw away
Win home (just)

[mim]

Can't see us managing a clean sheet away. I'll predict 2-0. Hard to overturn that at home, but we might manage to take it to extra time and beat a tired Hamilton 3-2 on aggregate.

[erin go bragh]

Squeaky bum time . But strangely im looking forward to the game . We need to get right behind the team from the start . Scoring the first goal would be nice but really do think we will at last get a performance from our team .

Ggtth

[GlenrothesHibee]

2-0 Hamilton. 2 goals in first 10 mins.

2-1 Hibs. Early goal for Hamilton. 2 goals in last 10 mins for Hibs giving us hope.

[greenpaper55]

I think we will be beaten 2-0 at Hamilton and win 1-0 at ER, we have a defence that is about championship quality at best and forwards that cannot score, i think we have to play Cairney, Thompson and Heffernan to have any chance, they have a wee bit class that might just tip things in our favour but really why should anything change ?.

[Pretty Boy]

If you offered me a draw tomorrow now I'd bite your hand off.

Think we will get one as well. 1-1 tomorrow, 2-1 Hibs in the home leg.

It will be nervy but I've heard a few people say all the pressure is on Hibs and Hamilton have nothing to lose. Absolute bollox, there is pressure on both teams and Hamilton will be every bit as nervous as us.

[Aldo]

We will win tomorrow and win on Sunday.

Will give you the later 2 but think I would prefer to see Harris or even Watmore running directly at their Back 4.

So true.

[ehf]

3 or 4 nil to Hamilton tomorrow. We will then get the win we have needed for months now on Sunday when it doesn't matter anymore.

[SteveHFC]

1-0 Hamilton

No pressure on Hamilton. They are very very confident about this.

[heretoday]

Draw tomorrow and we win on Sunday.

[Irish_Steve]

John Laurie

[Callum_62]

We should win both legs

Im fairly confident with no evidence to back it up what so ever

I think having Thommo, Robertson and Heff in the starting eleven will surely be enough quality/experience to see us through

If we cant beat a 1st div side over 2 legs, then we absolutely deserve to go down

Exert same pressure as we did to Killie 1st half, im sure a few goals will come

[Forza Fred]

I aM afraid my head and heart have become hardened.

I posted before the split that I could not see where a goal was going to come from, and nothing I have seen has made me change my mind.

Also, despite the positive ness on this thread I am also aware that Raith Rovers beat us at home, and Hamilton finished a good few places in front of us.

Sadly I see a 0 - 2 loss in the first leg.

Happy to have boiled eggs thrown at meif we win......but. Sheesh I just can't see a win coming

[Col2]

2-0 Hamilton (goals in first 20-30 mins)

0-1 Hamilton (last 15 mins)

I just don't see us scoring.

[Stax]

Think we'll do it over the two legs. No logic involved other than we can't be on this gash run forever. The last few games may have all ran to a familiar script but to me there were wee glimpses of hope. I think a scrappy goal or set piece from us could make all the difference. I'm not buying into this Hamilton under no pressure nonsense either, they'll be nervous alright. GGTTH.

[Hibbyradge]

Can't see us managing a clean sheet away. I'll predict 2-0. Hard to overturn that at home, but we might manage to take it to extra time and beat a tired Hamilton 3-2 on aggregate.

I agree, 2 - 0 against, but we'll also lose on Sunday, 0 - 1.

[The Harp]

If we can't see off Hamilton over two games with the added advantage of the 2nd game being at ER, then we don't deserve to be in the top flight. But the players will need to show determination and be disciplined from the first whistle. Man for man, we have the superior squad but unless we have the heart for a battle that will go for nothing.
I'll pass on the prediction - don't want to jinx us.:worried:

[joe breezy]

When was the last time Hibs scored 10 goals in a match? For Accies this occurred 2 weeks ago

I think we can win it 2-0 - First leg.

1-0 at home.

I think our midfield will be the stumbling block for them.

I would say the pressure is on us.

We are a big club that is trying to preserve its status as a Premiership club.

Hamilton, on the other hand, is a small club that is trying to get promotion out of the Championship. Of course Hamilton will feel pressure in the sense that they've come this far and they don't want to fall at the final hurdle but virtually all of the pressure is on us over these two legs and I feel that Hamilton can probably play with a degree of freedom.

[Sammy7nil]

I cannot believe the negativity on here.
Yes we are poor SPFL team yes we struggle to scoe goals BUT Hamilton aint no Real Madrid and last time I looked they play in league below us. .

I for one am really looking forward to these games no way should Hibs have lost the last 3 games, we just need our FAIR share of luck an equaal rub of the green and we will win.

Hamilton 0 - Hibernian 2

Hibernian 2 - Hamilton 1

Hard fought 4 - 1 on aggregate :agree: (Lump on ) :wink:

[AlbertK86]

IF we get the early goal .... We will go on and qualify ......however dreading the scenario that the usual happens

We play them off the park and they score on the break ..... We struggle and confidence saps away

If Thommo and Heffernan play we MUST play on deck...... High ball to Heffernan is a total waste

On the deck and I predict Heffernan will snatch a vital opener

Hope that TB and MM have same philosophy but from past experience I'm not convinced


Nervous but strangely optimistic

GGTTH

[SkintHibby]

1-0 Accies first leg

0-0 Second leg

Only saying what I believe will happen. :-(


Utterly disgusting that it has got to this stage.

I have taken the 3.05 on Betfair win or lose I think that price is too big.

We'll lose tomorrow and draw on Sunday.

We can't score, so not much chance of staying up.

I'm usually very positive and predict a Hibs win, I've lost quite a few quid this season on bets that included Hibs to win so I'll be more than happy to be proved wrong again.

Been surprised how much the Hamilton boss, chairman and players have been shouting their mouths off ahead this match - almost to the point of disrespect. There was no need for it. All the pressure was already on Hibs with the biggest question being how does Butcher motivate his players ?

IMO Hamilton are in for tough game tonight and I wouldn't be at all surprised to see a fired up Hibs team win by a couple of goals.

[NatureBoy]

Sadly I have absolutely zero confidence in the whole club. 2-0 Hamilton tonight and a limp 0-0 on Sunday to see us crash to the Championship, I hope with all my heart I'm proved wrong.

[leggeto]

If we lose the 1st goal tonight we've had it,will be a struggle,as long as we can keep a clean sheet we'll see them through on Sunday

[scuttle]

My head says 2-0 Hamilton then 1-1 at ER
My heart says please Hibs just win both legs

[SlickShoes]

2-0 Hamilton.

I will be supporting hibs but having been at the last 5 or 6 games, I cannot see where we will conjure a goal from. I don't see any way we will manage to keep a clean sheet either.

I want us to win 3-0 and put the tie to bed early but I just can't realistically see that happening.

[Onion]

Jees,I hope most of you guys are watching the game on TV.

Tonight we need stout hearts and steel balls. Come on the Hibs !

Raith Rovers beat us 3-2 at ER and they are "worse" than Hamilton.

No one here wants us to lose, but I don't understand how anyone can expect a multi goal victory if they had been at any of our recent games.

[Flanny boy]

1each tonight and 2-0 hibs on Sunday,that will do us :agree:

[NorthNorfolkHFC]

We'll get pumped both legs. The writing has been on the wall for ages and sadly, we deserve our inevitable fate.

I don't give a flying if its negative or otherwise and have made a small fortune betting against Hibs of late. The money I've won is going towards my families season ticket for next year regardless.

I'll be at both legs cheering 'the club' on and willing them on against the odds.

[Billy McKirdy]

2-0 for Accies tonight and 1-1 on Sunday, we're down.

[bigwheel]

i can't see a positive result if we play the long ball game that Butcher has introduced. Technically, we have better players than them, we could pass and move them off the park..but our biggest issue is this long ball game will play easily in to the hands of their defence. Butcher's biggest mistake has been how he has set us up to play - it's so easy to counteract. 2 -1 defeat tonight ... seat of the pants stuff on sunday..

You have watched Hibs this season? Were you at the game where a Raith Rovers side who finished 25 points behind Hamilton won at Easter Road in the Scottish Cup?

The fans negativity comes from the teams results and performances this season. I would be delighted but very surprised if Hibs won over the 2 legs.

[Cabbage East]

Surely we have enough quality in the squad to win this comfortably, assuming the players actually turn up for once.

[Peevemor]

1-1 tonight and 1-0 Hibs (or even penalties) et ER. Twitchy ringpieces right up 'til the last minute. :sofa:

[Seekyit]

1-1 tonight and 1-0 Hibs (or even penalties) et ER. Twitchy ringpieces right up 'til the last minute. :sofa:

I'm going for 0-0 tonight and 1-0 on Sunday. The tension will be unbearable in the last ten minutes but we'll do it.

[hibsmad]

It's not that we can't score -it's just that we can't score very many. However, even for a team who can't score very many, surely we are due a goal or two. I think we will be ok.

Saying that, I also thought we would beat Kilmarnock, and Partick before that, and Hearts before that. So really, I know **** all.

[The Gorf]

One nil Hibs both legs. :wink:

[Captain Trips]

I have a feeling this will be a tie over result tonight, I do not know why or who but I think it will be 3 or 4 nil to one team tonight.

[hfc-1875]

3-0 us tonight. Craig, Forster and Stanton!

Agree with this. The pressure is on us and their shouting off I think actually helps us. Hope so and think Hamilton have been pretty arrogant

[lapsedhibee]

When was the last time Hibs scored 10 goals in a match?

Not sure, but the last time I saw us score 11 goals was against Hamilton. When did they ever score 11 goals against us? :dunno:

[Paperboy]

I've seen Hamilton this season and they've impressed me. I think there's a tram on form playing a team in free fall and it breaks my heart to say it but Hibs may struggle.

The odds of Hamilton half time and Hamilton full time at 3/1 are just too tempting

[SouthamptonHibs]

3-0 Hibs it's our time to come good. Heff back Thommo back Roberston fully fit Craig looked decent v Killie I think we will be good tonight.
Butcher is the only one that worries me with his 4-5-1 pish formation.

[Sean1875]

every single prediction I've made in the run up to this game has been wrong. so on that note, 2-0 Hamilton!

[southern hibby]

Predict 2 or 3 goals for Hibs ( all against run of play) don't know why but think we will hit them on the break and actually make it count.

Hamilton seem to think they are going to win ( over two legs) not sure they will, as support tonight and at Easter Road will be willing Hibs on. Have they experienced this type of support at home this season backing the away team? GGTTH

[dmc1875]

I don't know why, I just have a feeling that we will come good tonight. Hamiltons over-confidence is a bit OTT and should act as great motivation and they aren't as good as they make out they are.

I think we could win 3-0 tonight, or maybe 3-1 is more realistic as we will concede :cb Positivity! GGTTH

2700 Hibs fans in their own stadium which is pretty much half the crowd should make the players think a bit especially if we get behind the team vocally :agree:

[Lago]

What ever will be will be.

[Saorsa]

2-1 Hibs tonight, 2-0 Hibs on sunday. :agree:

[chrisski33]

Hamilton 2-1 tonight curier and scotland and collins for us but sadly see us winning on sunday 1-0

[HibbySpurs]

The first goal is critical in this.

If (and it's big one) we score first I think we'll get through this ok.

If Hamilton score first we're in real trouble as we've seen the confidence from good starts just dissapear after getting sucker punched.

I also think it's critical that we do get a positive result tonight and that a draw is not helpful as we are ****ing rank rotten at ER as it is...

Get the first goal tonight I think it may knock Hamilton a bit and if we can win even 2-0 from there I think we would be home and hosed.

I'm not confident and I aint making a prediction as such, just predicting how I think the game needs to go for us to come out the right side after the two legs......

[GlenrothesHibee]

Comfortable win for us tonight.

Hamilton are crap and will be put firmly in their place.

[Cabbage East]

I have a feeling this will be a tie over result tonight, I do not know why or who but I think it will be 3 or 4 nil to one team tonight.

If we lose 4 nil to Hamilton tonight then we don't deserve to be in the Premiership.

I refuse to say, as I dread the abuse I'll get.....
