A new Premiership campaign is about to unfold and this is the premier real match for Hibernian and St. Mirren. Let's start!

Little time to rest for the host team, as they featured in a Europa Conference League fixture only three days earlier. Thankfully the previous game, versus Inter Club d'Escaldes, was also a home game here at Easter Road Stadium. The away team is better rested.

Hibernian form and stats

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Hibernian have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 7 games) they have won 4 times, drawn 2 and lost 1.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Hibernian as they have a new game in only three days, a Europa Conference League match thankfully also at home. Luzern are visiting.

With the first game of the season soon underway, it's time to look at the results from the Hibernian friendly games in pre-season: Hibernian played four friendlies, won 3, drew 0 and lost 1. If you are really into statistics you might appreciate knowing that Hibernian scored {8 goals} and conceded 6 in these four games.

St. Mirren form and stats

St. Mirren are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 1 win, 1 draw and 5 defeats. From a total of 7 matches.
