Saturday's Scottish Premiership predictions including Rangers vs. St Mirren

Hibernian vs. Hearts (Saturday, 12.30pm)

Edinburgh rivals Hibernian and Hearts will lock horns at Easter Road on Saturday, with interim manager Steven Naismith leading the visitors for the first time since Robbie Neilson's sacking.

Both Hibs and Hearts have lost each of their last four Scottish Premiership matches, giving the old foes extra motivation to claim the Auld Reekie bragging rights this weekend.

We say: Hibernian 2-2 Hearts

Having both lost each of their last four league games, Hibernian and Hearts will be eager to stop the rot this weekend, so we can see the arch-rivals sharing the points in an entertaining Edinburgh derby.

Livingston vs. St Johnstone (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Two sides in poor form face off in the Scottish Premiership on Saturday afternoon, as Livingston welcome St Johnstone to the Tony Macaroni Arena.

Livi head into the penultimate round of the regular season on the back of successive 3-0 defeats, while the Saints carry a five-game winless run to West Lothian.

We say: Livingston 0-1 St Johnstone

Given that St Johnstone have collected more than 60% of their points on the road this season, we can see the visitors enhancing their impressive away record with a narrow victory over Livingston, who are on course to suffer a third defeat in five home games.

Motherwell vs. Dundee Utd (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Having ended an 11-game winless run last time out, Dundee United will continue their bid for survival when they face a resurgent Motherwell outfit at Fir Park on Saturday.

Dundee United remain rooted to the foot of the Scottish Premiership table despite last weekend's victory, while Motherwell occupy eighth place following back-to-back wins.

We say: Motherwell 2-0 Dundee United

Having taken their game to another level under Stuart Kettlewell, Motherwell look set to claim a sixth victory in eight matches when lowly Dundee United visit Fir Park, with the Tangerines expected to suffer a fifth defeat in six away outings.

Rangers vs. St Mirren (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Rangers will aim to bounce straight back from last weekend's Old Firm defeat when St Mirren visit Ibrox on Saturday afternoon.

Trailing Celtic by 12 points in the Scottish Premiership table, Rangers' title hopes have all but faded, although St Mirren still have plenty to play for.

We say: Rangers 3-0 St Mirren

Regardless of St Mirren's recent form, we expect Rangers to secure a comfortable victory on Saturday, with the hosts expected to put last weekend's Old Firm failure behind them in style.
