    6 Games before the Split

    3 at home (Hamilton, Hearts and Partick)
    3 Away (Killie, St Johnstone and Ross County)

    How many points will we take?

    Given our current form, I'm really hoping for c.15/18, given outside of Killie it's really the dross of the league we're playing. Would put us in really good stead for a Top 3 finish!

    It's hard to say, I'd rather predict 6 points in the last five games than how many in the next six, but as you've asked I'll say a minimum of six and maximum twelve in the next six (being pessimistic).

    No idea about the killie game, but i think we'll win the rest barring st johnstone.

    Minimum of 12 points but we really ought to be looking at around 14 or 15 points.

    I'm personally saying 15.

    We'll win them all, apart from maybe Killie this weekend, or St Johnstone.

    If we win 6/6 I think that'll be some sort of record in recent times - 9 wins in a row? Ooft!

    Hamilton - 3 pts
    Hearts - 1 pt
    Partick - 3 pts
    Killie - 1 pt
    St Johnstone - 1 pt
    Ross County - 3 pts

    I'd be happy with no less than twelve, fourteen is realistically achievable.
    That said, if we can replicate the 2nd half against Aberdeen for the next six games it would see us win them all.

  11. #10
    Last 2 games have set the benchmark.

    I do not expect us to lose any of the games.

    All 3 home fixtures should be wins.

    Would be looking for at least 1 away win with 2 draws.

    Therefore minimum 14 points.

    If we want to challenge for 2nd then this is the least we need. Even if we get 18 points then it will come down to beating The Rangers and Aberdeen post split.

    We'll win 3, draw 2, and lose 1.

    11 points.

    Less than 90% of the predictions on here most likely.

  14. #13
    No chance we will let Hearts take points off us. I predict a comfortable 16 after drawing with Killie.

    Kilmarnock - 1pt
    St Johnstone - 1pt
    Ross County - 3pt

    Hamilton - 3pt
    Hearts - 3pt
    Partick - 3pt

    Fully expecting to win the 3 home games. And 2 out the 3 away games are probably 2 of the more ideal away games you could ask for at this stage of season, two struggling outfits.

    Yup

    We’ll more than likely drop points somewhere along the line.

    Anything less than 12 would be pretty disappointing IMO. We’re capable of getting 18 but it’s unlikely. I think it’ll be somewhere in between.

  20. #19
    Most predicted we'd struggle to pick up points over the previous games including Aberdeen, The Rangers and Celtic. We have exceeded expectation for most

    Most are now predicting we will take loads of the next set of fixtures.... why do I have that sinking feeling lol

    For what it's worth I'll say 12

    Looking up table as we should be:

    Sevco Next 6

    H Hearts
    A St Jonstone
    H Celtic
    H Killie
    A Motherwell
    H Dundee

    Aberdeen:

    H Celtic
    A Motherwell
    A Thistle
    H Dundee
    H St Johnstone
    A Hearts

    If we can keep our form before the split then post-split is probably the real opportunity to leapfrog Aberdeen. Given how poor their results have been up to this point against the teams around them, aside from the first two games against us. I don't see them picking up many then.However, more often than not, we have risen to the occasion.

    Is it too optimistic to suggest we have the potential to achieve the same points tally that won us the Championship (71)? We get 15/18 here that puts us on 63 points pre-split...

    Simon Murray can really do us a turn v Aberdeen and Sevco.

    Oh! Good God Almighty!

    I said in a previous thread about "when we expect good things from our team we get smacked in the mouth" (or words to that effect).

    So, learning from many, many years of following this wonderful football club, I will be cautious and say ....................... 16points, with Killie being a 2-2 draw.


  26. #25
    Strange I missed it when Killie turned in to Man City why does hardly any one fancy us to win there ?
    Having g said that I will go for 10 -12 points

  27. #26
    Can anyone tell me why both Hibs and Hertz are both away from home this week?

    Given that they switched to Murrayfield in order to play the Huns last time I thought they were all caught up with their mad fixture list?

    Right going to predict that Hibs will score at least 2 goals in each of the games before the split and think we’ll score 3 against Killie.

    We really have an attacking team now with the jan signings. If we get a run of games with the starting 11 the same the team will bed in and actually do good.

    If the holy Trinity play every game I think we can finish second !!

    I'll say 9, which means hearts would need to win all their games to catch us going into the split. Which I can't see happening

    It's worth noting that if we do get 9 points from our next 6 matches and those points include a win or a draw against Hearts, we'll still be above them going into the split, even if they win all of their other matches.

    So we can afford to lose as many as 3 of our next 6 games and still be guaranteed to be above Hearts!
