After delivering a winning selection on Sunday, SlipsTips shares a Bet Builder ahead of Hibernian’s clash with Rangers on Wednesday night.
Hibernian vs Rangers (Wednesday, 19:45)
Hibernian and Rangers will square off in an intriguing-looking Scottish Premiership showdown at Easter Road on Wednesday night.
David Gray’s hosts will come into this clash off the back of back-to-back wins over Livingston and Aberdeen.
Meanwhile, new Rangers boss Danny Rohl claimed his first win at the second attempt with a 3-1 win over Kilmarnock on Sunday.
Each Team 3+ Corners
I’ll get the Bet Builder up and running by backing each team to hit a minimum of three corners. Both of these sides are likely to play on the front foot on Wednesday night, and that should be conducive to plenty of action in the final-thirds.
Moreover, both teams have been posting high team corner totals this term.
Hibernian have averaged 5.56 corners per game in this season’s Scottish Premiership, a tally that increases to 6.75 when going about their business at their capital headquarters, covering the 3+ corner line on each occasion.
As for Rangers, they have averaged 7.89 flag kicks per 90 in the Scottish top-flight this term, comfortably clearing the 3+ corner line in each of their opening nine league games of the season.
Over 1.5 Goals
Look for this clash to feature a minimum of two match goals. A sizeable seven of Hibs’ nine Scottish Premiership matches this season have produced at least two match strikes, including each of their four outings at Easter Road. It's also worth noting that each of the hosts' two outings in this season’s Scottish League Cup yielded two or more goals – one of which was against Rangers.
The visitors, on the other hand, have seen eight of their nine top-flight tussles this term generate a minimum of two goals. What’s more, two of the Light Blues' three continental contests this season have broken the over 1.5 goal barrier.
Each Team 1+ Card
With a hotly-anticipated encounter expected under the Easter Road lights, I’ll conclude the Bet Builder by backing each team to receive a card.
The Hibees have averaged 1.33 cards per 90 in this season’s Scottish Premiership, collecting multiple bookings during Sunday’s 2-1 win over Aberdeen at Pittodrie. Gray’s side also racked up a couple of cards when losing to Rangers at Ibrox in the League Cup last month.
Meanwhile, Rangers have received an average of 2.22 cards per game in the Scottish top-flight this term, with each team going into the book in each of the Light Blues’ four league games away from home.
