Hibernian started the season with two convincing victories - 2:1 against Dundee in the first round of the league and 2:0 as a guest against Partizan in the Conference League. Against the Serbs, they played with one man more for half an hour, which inevitably affected the final result. Also, in the match against Dundee, they hardly allowed any dangerous situations, which shows their strong defensive play.
Difficulties for KilmarnockKilmarnock entered the new season with a draw against Livingston, despite leading by two goals before being left with one man less. However, the team often has problems in attack when visiting Hibernian - they have not scored a goal in their last six visits to Easter Road. Furthermore, in just two of their last ten matches, there have been goals for both teams.
Prediction: Under 2.5 goalsAnd considering that in eight of the last ten meetings between the two teams there have been under 2.5 goals, the expectation is for this clash to be low-scoring again. Hibernian's strong defense and Kilmarnock's difficulties in attack lean towards few goals being scored.
