Hearts vs St Mirren Predictions

• Hearts have won five of their last six games.
• St Mirren have lost their last three.
• Hearts have kept back-to-back clean sheets.

Win and a shut-out for pacesetters Hearts

Hearts continue to lead the way in the Premiership and they can at least extend their advantage with a victory and a clean sheet against out-of-sorts St Mirren.

Title rivals Celtic are also in action on Wednesday, but nearest rivals Rangers don’t have a game so Hearts could move six points clear at the top of the table and they are unlikely to waste that opportunity against the Buddies.

The Edinburgh outfit have won five of their last six games and managed a 1-0 win at Dundee last time out despite playing the entire second half with 10 men.

St Mirren are winless in four and have lost their last three, scoring just one goal across that quartet of games, so a home win to nil looks the best angle for our main net.

Claudio Braga was on target for Hearts at Dundee and the Portuguese forward looks a good anytime scorer option here. Braga scored at St Mirren earlier in the season and has three goals in his last six games.

Hearts score on average just under two goals per-game and they look capable of reaching their average here. The Jambos have scored exactly twice in four of their last six games, while the Saints have conceded at least twice in seven of their last eight away assignments across all competitions.
