Rangers vs Hearts Betting Tips, Correct Score Prediction and Suggested Bet Builders

Rangers welcome high-flying Hearts to Ibrox this weekend as the two do battle in the Scottish Premiership.

The Light Blues have not picked up a win this season in the league yet and that makes for grim reading for the punters who will pack Ibrox on Saturday.

A snoozefest Old Firm clash against Celtic ended goalless in their most recent outing but it was an improvement on the 6-0 mauling they endured vs Club Brugge in Europe the week before.

For Hearts, meanwhile, the story could hardly be any different. Derek McInnes has helped himself to 10 points from a possible 12 as his Jambos keep pace with Celts at the top of the Premiership.

Any sort of result in Glasgow can be considered a good one and confidence will surely be sky high.

Leading football betting sites have a Rangers home win at 7/10 while a draw sits at 29/10 and a Hearts victory away from home is at 10/3.

Rangers vs Hearts: Correct Score Prediction

Rangers have started the season poorly by their fans’ expectations and will simply have to pick up a victory no matter what against the visiting Gorgie outfit.

The home side know improvements must be made but if they can build on the momentum from the 0-0 derby last game, they may yet pick up three points.

It won’t be a classic at Ibrox, we don’t think, and the odds of a narrow 1-0 victory look very tasty.

A 1-0 home win (priced around 8/1) could be a possible outcome.

Rangers vs Hearts Bet Builder Tips

Here are three picks that make sense for Saturday’s fixture:

Under 2.5 goals @ 5/4

We’ve yet to really see Rangers take the training wheels off under Russell Martin and we don’t expect them to do it this weekend. Their opening four matches have brought about just four points and the manager cannot afford to drop more points.

Expect a cagey 90 minutes or so of action with Gers doing the bare minimum to end their winless run.

Rangers win @ 7/10

Manager Martin is in desperation stage right now, and he can take confidence from his side’s improvement vs Celtic last time.

Will instruct his players to win by any means necessary and we know now that Gers can play ugly when they need to.

Bojan Miovski anytime scorer @ 6/4

The North Macedonian made his debut against Celtic but didn’t offer much, it must be said. He is a prolific goal scorer in Scotland so he will be eyeing his first for the club this weekend.

Hasn’t the best record vs the Jambos but it has to change. Right?
