Hearts and St Mirren shared the points when they drew 1-1 in Paisley on Saturday but it could be an altogether different story in the capital tonight.
St Mirren have had the away day blues this season, picking up just 5 points from a possible 32 on their travels. They’re on a six-match unbeaten run at the moment but they’ve drawn four of those.
Gorgie hasn’t been a happy hunting ground for the Buddies lately, they’ve lost on their last three visits and conceded 11 goals in the process.
And goal is where profit could lie tonight. That 1-1 draw last week was the first in five games that the Jambos had failed to score two or more.
Striker Lawrence Shankland has been responsible for most of those. The Scottish Internationalist is on 15 league goals for the season, a raft of which have come from the spot.
He can help Hearts to open a six point gap in third place as well as finding the net more than once. A Hearts win couple with Over 1.5 Hearts goals pays 7/5.
Tune in to BTSport 1 for a top of the table clash from Serie A tonight. A wobble by Napoli last weekend opened the door for the chasing pack but they still hold a commanding seven point lead at the summit.
Nearest challengers, Juventus, are the visitors at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium this evening and it’s a must-win game for the Old Lady.
Juve goals stats this season are remarkable. Second in the table despite having scored just five goals in eight away games. Matches on the road average just 1.12 goals per game. Obviously that points to a strong defensive record and they’ve only conceded seven all season (17 games).
They go toe-to-toe with the most prolific team in Serie A tonight however. Napoli’s 39 goals makes them the league’s top scorers and they’re one of just two clubs whose matches average over 3.00 goals (Inter the other).
That superior firepower could be the key factor tonight, although it might take just a single goal to decide this one. Napoli are 10/11 to take a major step towards their first Scudetto since 1990 whilst Under 2.5 Goals pays 4/5.
