Score prediction v St Mirren

[The Sea-gull]

Looking for the good run to continue and this is a great chance to build on the confidence and start to improve our home record by recording our first three points of the season at Easter Road against the league's struggling team.

I'd be happy with any sort of win but am I being greedy hoping for a performance and dare I say it some goals? Would be good to see Heff and JC adding to their goals from last week and at least one of them becoming a regular scorer. Think JC in particular would benefit hugely from a home goal in a winning team. Doesn't matter really who scores though as long as we win.

Here comes the concern though. St Mirren haven't been able to buy a win. Manager under pressure. We turn in one of our Charity FC performances and give the team in need of a result what they are looking for.

Do we really frequently give struggling teams results or is this just an exaggerated supporter myth?

Anyway, my thinking is edging towards a hibs win. Don't think we quite have it in us to score 3 and 4 as yet though you never know and this would be as good a chance as any we will have to do it. If pushed I'll go 2-1 Hibs though would not be surprised at a low socre draw or a narrow Saints win either.

[Bronson]

With Heff and Collins off the mark and from what I've heard about Zoubir, we have enough attacking threat to score 3/4, although I don't think we will.

I'll go 2-0 hibs, but I can't help but feel St Mirren are bound to start picking up points sooner or later, and if we won it would put them on 1 point from 7 games which is atrocious.

Confidence is huge in football and we seem to be getting some, whereas St Mirren's morale will be rock bottom, which should play in our favour.

[Franck Stanton]

Whilst one swallow doesn't make a summer, one win doesn't make us world-beaters, but I do think we have "turned the corner", got a wee bit confidence and belief back so will go for 3-1

[Heisenberg]

3-1 Hibs

[RC1875]

3-1 hibs

Heff(2) Collins

[happiehibbie]

well going by past years when a team have not won for AGES ten comes the Hibs and we get beat !!!

So on that lodgic Hibs 1 - 2 St Mirren

[Onceinawhile]

2-0 Hibs, solid if uninspiring. First clean sheet of the season is a bonus though.

It was a bonus against Ross County IMO.:wink:

[weonlywon6-2]

Id settle for a one nil with a lot of effort and a wee bit entertainment thrown in

Me too. :agree:

Emm... Did I say first clean sheet? Sure I typed second. Stupid autocorrect.

[Col2]

1-1

[Bob Box Fish]

1-2

[silverhibee]

When was the last time Hibs scored 3 goals in the league at ER.



3-0 :flag:



Heff 2

Zoubs 1

Danny Lennon to be sacked after the game.

[Purple & Green]

Two of the lowest scoring teams in Scotland.. Has 0-0 written all over it.

[semaj64]

With temperature rising over the weekend a going for 2-0 Hibs

[eastterrace]

With temperature rising over the weekend a going for 2-0 Hibs

if you really fancy that scoreline then get your money on hibs minus goal at 7/2, we are due to hit a few are we not or will it be dull dull and duller.

[Albanian Hibs]

3-0 Hibs. If I predict that score often enough it is bound to happen sometime.

[Sir David Gray]

2-0 Hibs.

St Mirren are awful. If we don't win on Saturday, there's something wrong.

[hfc rd]

St Mirren are awful. We have to win this one as if we don't then something really is wrong.

3-0 Hibs

Collins
Nelson
Zoubir

[Up The Bracket]

1-0, poor performance, but a win IMO, with the home fans to be as useful as ever in boosting players' confidence levels.

[marinello59]

1-0, poor performance, but a win IMO, with the home fans to be as useful as ever in boosting players' confidence levels.

Maybe only the super duper fans who go to away matches should be allowed to go. The regular home fans can spend their £400 season ticket money on something else.

[Pete]

A nice, comfortable 2-0 win.

This will be the game where it all starts to click at home. :aok:

[Beefster]

1-0, poor performance, but a win IMO, with the home fans to be as useful as ever in boosting players' confidence levels.

For **** sake...

[HH81]

2-1 hibs.

[Brightside]

11-1

[Sweet Left Peg]

2-0 Hibs. Heffernan and Collins.

[Steve20]

3-1 Hibs

[PeeJay]

See no reason to believe that this game will be an easy 3 points for us - we have shown often enough in the recent past that we are quite capable of losing any game no matter how good or bad or young and inexperienced the opposing team may be. Hope we win, I'll go for 2-1 - we're bound to lose a goal, and we might get lucky up front ... wouldn't be in the least surprised if it went the other way though.

[Thecat23]

Stuff it, I'm going 4-0 Hibs and for once it all clicks together tomorrow for our players and strikers.

No I haven't been drinking honest!!!! :D

[steakbake]

3 or 4 - 1.

If we're genuinely starting to click, then now would be a good time and that would be good evidence.

I think we'll concede a goal - maybe concede first then go on to win.

[Craig_in_Prague]

1-1

[BOB MARLEYS DUG]

3-0 hibs. Heff, Collins and Robertson.

[PatHead]

2-1

[Up The Bracket]

Maybe only the super duper fans who go to away matches should be allowed to go. The regular home fans can spend their £400 season ticket money on something else.

Or you could always go to both

[LancsHibs]

2-0 Hibs

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

If we could take the lead in a game for once it would make a huge difference to the fans/players, lets hope we get off to a flier and kick on from there.

[JimBHibees]

Yep they are lacking in confidence we really need to start quickly, dominate the game and keep them in their own half. Too many games we start slow and seem to wait and see how it will go rather than taking the initiative. Start on the front foot for once at home giving the fans something to shout about.

[mutley]

I think I am in the 3-1 hibs camp, even though the law of averages state that St Mirren are due a draw/win I'm hoping it won't be this week . It would be nice IF we could also keep a clean sheet and pick up a couple of goals to up out goal difference. Confidence is high ( but this is hibs so who knows)

Mon the hibees

[Dashing Bob S]

8-0 Hibs, a total rout, which sees St Mirren sack Danny Lennon and replace him with a no-nonsense SPL manager who knows how to grind out results and win ugly. The impact of the new boss on Saints is immediately felt in the next game against Hearts, where the bone-crunching tackles on the young Jambo players leads to several injuries and a a 2-0 win for the Buddies. Gary Locke produces a bitter, whingeing 'why us' protest, but the heads of the Gorgie youth go down as the heavy pitches sees them fall to the cynical ploys of the SPL old stagers and Hearts are hopelessly adrift in the relegation berth by Christmas.

BUT

There is light at the end of the tunnel and the Gorgie boys are massively saved from relegation!


OOPS


The light is a train called liquidation, and they have run out of dosh and are wound up, unable to complete their fixtures.


BUT

A Newco rise from the ashes with no debt, no asbestos stadium and a bid to groundshare with Whitehill Welfare in order to try and secure a berth in the new Lowlife League.

Wouldn't mind that scenario unfolding Bob

[Dashing Bob S]

Can practically guarantee everything other than the 8-0 win.

[hfc rd]

That's the one I want the most. Couldn't care less what happens to those gorgie rats.

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

I'd settle for 7 if it meant the rest happened!

[HibbyAndy]

2-0.

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

3-0 hibs. Heff, Collins and Robertson.

I posted on the punting thread that Zoubir was a big price @ 11s for first scorer. I see 25s is available for Robertson which could be worth an ew investment.

[IWasThere2016]

Sticking £20 on 2-1 Hibs, and a wee fiver on Craig for first goal.

GGTTH :thumbsup:

We usually do teams that are playing badly a favour whenever they visit fortress Easter Rd. so it'll either be 1-0 Saints or if we decide to actually play like a team aiming at 2nd spot then 3-1 to the Hibs.

[erin go bragh]

3-1 - 2 Collins ,1 Heff

Ggtth

[Beefster]

Or you could always go to both

Maybe he used to when he was 16 but nowadays he likes to see his wife and/or kids some Saturdays?

[Stringer]

Predictions are pointless. Hope for a convincing win against a very poor side

[Hibernian Retro]

After some debate the Hibernian Retro Team are going for a confident display resulting in a 3 - 0 win.

GGTTH

[brian6-2]

2-1 Hibs. Heffernan x2.

[Islington Hibs]

This is probably the kiss of death but I think we will give them a good going over today. 3-0.

[Dashing Bob S]

That's the one I want the most. Couldn't care less what happens to those gorgie rats.

I don't believe you. The fact that you refer to our Gorgie friends by the derogatory term 'rats' (derogatory to the rat, of course), tells me you really do care deep down inside. And, of course, it's to your credit.

[NOLA]

10-0

[danhibees1875]

We're going to win 7-1.

2-1 and questionable at half time, then 5 goals in the second half. Hat tricks for Collins and Heffernan and a goal for Craig. :aok: Nelson with an O.G :rolleyes:

[Pretty Boy]

3-1 Hibs.

[shetlandhibee]

6-2 hibs.:greengrin

[MADE IN LEITH]

[Billy Whizz]

I'll take a 1-0 today

[cabbageandribs1875]

2-0 the cabbage

[Stuarty27]

5-0 Hibs

[Nevi_SOL]

3-2 Craig, heff and vine(I know)

[Keith_M]

Home win, 2:1

[Aldo]

I think both Heff and Collins will score today in a Hibs victory.

3-1 Hibs

[sleeping giant]

4-0 today. Mon the Hibees

[TAHibby]

Would absolutely love a convincing 3-0, dominant from start to finish. A glance online earlier looks like it's going to be quite a decent crowd. Maybe plenty of those horrible students in attendance! :greengrin

[Hibbyradge]

It's not going to be good today, I'm afraid.

I just got £16.90 change in Middletons.

1 - 0 to the good guys.

[Onceinawhile]

2-0 Hibs, solid if uninspiring. First clean sheet of the season is a bonus though.

Correct for the second week in a row. :smug:

Didn't have any cash on either result :notsosmug:
