Struggling Ross County will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Hibernian in the upcoming league round. It’s 11th vs 3rd and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.
- Ross County has the fewest scored goals (21) in Premiership
- Hibernian have scored at least twice as many goals as they have conceded away.
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
Ross County form and stats
With 2 Premiership wins, 4 draws and 8 defeats from their home games, Ross County, who have the fewest scored goals (21) in Premiership, are certainly not brimming with confidence. Two defeats in a row at home hurts for County, their manager J. Hughes and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.
The County crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-2 to Dundee United here at Global Energy Stadium in a Premiership match. Before that match, a win away at Hamilton Academical.
County have scored 11 league goals here from 14 matches, not a lot. County have conceded 27 from these games.
Hibernian form and stats
The away team have been very comfortable on their travels so far, racking up 9 wins, 2 draws and only 3 losses in the Premiership. Hibernian love their trips these days, as their two previous away games have resulted in victories.
Impressive finishing from Martin Boyle (2) secured the home win 2-0 against Aberdeen in their previous game. Before that one, a nice away victory 2-1 at St. Mirren.
The travelling fans enjoy Hibernian's attacking play in away games, having scored 22 goals in 14 league matches away. It's not easy to score on Hibernian as they have only conceded 9 goals from these away games.
