Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

Neither Aberdeen or Hearts are in the kind of form that would leave us feeling confident enough to tip a match winner, so instead we've gone for over 1.5 goals. The statistics tell us that both have a track record in this market, both individually and when going head-to-head. We're predicting there's a 74% chance of two goals or more.
