16/07: Daily Football Predictions: Hibernian vs Queens Park – Scottish Cup

Betting Predictions

Hibernian will host Queen’s Park at Easter Road on Tuesday in their second group-stage match in the Scotland League Cup.

After placing second in their relegation playoff group with 46 points, the host team concluded the regular season in eighth place in the top division, while the visitors finished eighth in the Scottish Championship with 43 points.

Head-to-Head

With a 12-0 overall record in their past four competitive games, Queen’s Park is undefeated.

In this competition, Hibs has scored more than 3.5 goals in six of its previous 11 games.

In the premier league, only Kilmarnock and Hibs drew more games than each other. Since Hibernian defeated Aberdeen 1-2 at Hampden in the League Cup in August 2007, these two teams have not played each other in a competitive match.

Team News

The hosts hope to get Elie Youan back in the running for a starting position after an illness kept him out of their 5-0 success over Elgin City on Saturday.

Though Chris Cadden was forced off the previous game due to thigh discomfort, it would be surprising if he started for Hibs on Tuesday.

Regarding the visitors, Liam McLeish and Zach Mauchin, who both scored after coming on against Peterhead, may push for starting positions on Tuesday, though manager Davidson may choose to start with a similar lineup considering the margin of victory.
Queen’s Park have also added attacker Zak Rudden to the team after Dundee released him, and considering he scored on his debut for the club on Saturday, he is likely to start again.

Probable Line-Up

Hibernian XI:

Bursik; Moriah-Welsh, O’Hora, Miller, Obita; Ekpiteta, Newell; Boyle, Campbell, Molotnikov; Vente

Queen’s Park XI:  

Ferie; Thomson, Wilson, Reid; Scott, Longridge, Walsh, Thomas, Turner; MacGregor, Rudden

Verdict

Tip: Hibernian to Win

Reason

Despite both teams making excellent starts in the group stage of the League Cup, it is difficult to ignore the fact that Hibs are a division higher than their opponents.

However, given that both Queen’s Park and Hibs won 5-0, they will no doubt feel confident of at least causing their hosts difficulties.

Tip: Over 2.5 Goals

Reason

Hibernian defeated Elgin City, a League Two team, 0–5, and even though Queen’s Park is a higher caliber team, they should have too much talent for a team one division below.

The greatest strategy should be to go for goals because both teams scored five on Saturday. There’s a significant probability Hibs will cover the Over 2.5 Goals barrier themselves if you want at least three goals.
