Implied probability: 25.64%
Draw

Implied probability: 24.69%
Celtic To Win
1.85

Short form guide

There is no huge separation between Motherwell and Celtic in the result picture, and the draw probability underlines that. The forecast points towards a game where patience matters as much as attacking ambition. The score prediction is 1-2.

Chance creation at both ends is a major part of the match read, with Both Teams to Score: Yes 59.25%, No 40.75% and Total Goals Over/Under 2.5: Over 56.79%, Under 43.21%. The more aggressive side in transition may be the one that turns that goals angle into control.

Hearts vs Falkirk

Kick-off: Wed 13 May 2026 20:00 BST

Prediction
Hearts vs Falkirk 2-1

Hearts vs Falkirk Best Odds

Hearts To Win
1.44
Implied probability: 69.44%
Draw
4.75
Implied probability: 21.05%
Falkirk To Win
7.50
Implied probability: 13.33%

Short form guide

The result market leans towards Hearts, who are rated at 55.28% in the full-time probabilities. Falkirk are not out of the picture, but they may need a sharper start and better efficiency in the final third to shift the match away from that forecast. The score prediction is 2-1.

There is no extreme goal signal in the prediction stats, with Both Teams to Score: Yes 55.79%, No 44.21% and Total Goals Over/Under 2.5: Over 54.87%, Under 45.13%. The match could therefore swing on finishing quality rather than a clear pre-match scoring trend.
