Hamilton vs Ross County Predictions

• Ross County’s last win at Hamilton was back in 2015, they’ve failed to win in five trips since
• The visitors have lost five of their last six trips in the Premiership
• Ross County won just twice in their 16 away games last term (D5 L9)
• Hamilton have won three of their last five at home to the Staggies

Can Hamilton bounce back?

Ross County picked up three points against Motherwell on Monday, but will they make it two wins from two to kick off the campaign? They head to Hamilton having failed to win in any of their last five visits here, which hurts their hopes of turning around last season’s awful record on the road.

Meanwhile, Hamilton have the chance to bounce back after a disappointing opener. They weren’t expected to pick anything up at Celtic, but they can’t be happy at being blown away in a 5-1 thrashing. That’s done little to boost their hopes of staying up this season, but can the Accies secure three points against a potential relegation rival? Our predictions back them to sort out their form.

County’s away woes

The visitors had a dreadful away record last season, which prevented them from pulling away from the fight for survival. They finished the season with five defeats in six away trips, only adding to their poor record overall.

Across their 16 away league games last season, the Staggies produced only two wins. They lost nine of those matches, with plenty of defeats on the road coming in 2020. Given that they head to a ground where they tend to struggle, their poor record is set to continue.

Accies’ Opportunity

The visitors have a chance to claim an important win here, especially following their opening weekend drubbing. Clashes like these will be key for both of these sides, who seem to be in a four-way fight for survival. The Accies should make the most of home advantage, especially after scoring twice in each of their last three meetings with the Staggies at this ground.

The Accies finished last season with a home win over Kilmarnock, as they bounced back after taking just one point from four home meetings with the top four. They’re much better suited for this kind of clash, having won three and drawn two of their last five at home to Ross County. As a result, we’re backing the hosts Draw No Bet along with a 2-1 correct score prediction.
