Hearts vs Ross County Predictions

• This fixture has witnessed fewer than three goals in four of the last five meetings.
• Hearts have seen fewer than three goals in all of their last six matches.
• Ross County are without a clean sheet in their last three games.

Consistency hard to come by

Consistency is something that Hearts have been searching for all season but are still yet to achieve it. Their last eight games have seen them lose four and win four but without a back-to-back result, it’s this kind of form that has allowed those below them to close the gap on them. However, they still occupy the third spot in the table and welcome a side in the bottom three hoping that they can put back-to-back wins together for the first time in nearly three months.

Ross County have scored a similar amount of goals to those in the top four (26) but their issue is they’ve conceded the second-most goals in the league. Both teams have found the back of the net in four of the away sides last five matches and it perfectly represents their season as whilst they’re scoring, they just can’t stop conceding.

Hearts to edge close encounter

Four of the last five meetings have witnessed fewer than three goals and whilst Ross County have witnessed goals aplenty in the majority of their fixtures this season, we think that Hearts will look to keep things tight and control the game. The visitors haven’t kept a clean sheet in their last three and we think the hosts have enough to clinch a win here.
