Hearts Women vs Rangers Women tips and predictions

Celebrations not certain for Rangers fans

Rangers are obviously favoured by the sportsbooks but the outrageously short price renders them a no-bet.

Hearts might have their backs to the wall in no time. However, the hosts have reached 6 wins in 7 matches. Conversely the travelling side has been patchy. They've lost 2 of their last 3 matches, home or away. For a team so short in the betting, perhaps they'd be expected to have done better than this. Granted it will be a shock to see Hearts get this done but it is not of Leicester City winning the 2015 EPL proportions as the prices are making out.

Hearts should expect extended periods of play without possession. If the hosts are up for it, it will have a lot to do with their recent goal spree. They have shown their tenacity. Their recent 7 matches have resulted in them averaging an impressive 5.4 goals per game and that's been backed up throughout the squad. At the back they've kept a clean sheet in 7 of their last 11 home games.

Recently Rangers have conceded an average of 3.3 goals in their last 3 matches. Only those wearing rose-tinted glasses will be confident of the upset, but it might happen.

Most observers believe that both sides can score despite the vehement favouritism for Rangers. It's all about value though and with the odds-against price on BTTS No, that makes more sense this time around.

It could be that the clinical finishing in the hosts' recent performances is going to make the difference between the two sides. If they are to get the job done, it is important that they build on those showings.
