Heart Of Midlothian FC vs Rangers Prediction & Betting Tips - Scottish Premiership
by Nella Wagah in Football Predictions
An early kickoff to start off the Premiership will see Hearts play host to Rangers on Saturday at Tynecastle Park. Here’s a preview and prediction for the match pitting the teams that finished second and third in the regular season in 2023/24.
Hosts Hearts didn’t have the best of performances in preseason, losing all three matches. The most recent of those was a 3-0 defeat at Fleetwood Town in the final week of July. A particular concern for Hearts will be regarding their defence as they conceded more than a goal in each of their warm up matches.
High scores were also common in their final matches of the past season. The four games that wrapped up their season ended in over 2.5 goals. Their last Premiership game of the 2023/24 campaign was against Rangers, which ended 3-3.
In their quest for a flying start to the 2024/25 campaign, Hearts will be gunning for their first win in 16 meetings with Rangers.
As Rangers return to the venue of their final league game last season, there’s little to cheer on from preseason. They could only manage a draw in their four friendly matches. The earlier three ended in defeats and left questions about Rangers’ defence.
Those questions were even more pronounced as they conceded four against Union Berlin even though they scored as many in the 4-4 draw. For a team that is desperately trying to catch up with rivals Celtic, the preseason performances did little to inspire confidence.
Heading into this game, Rangers will want to improve on one clean sheet in 11 matches in the Premiership. Ten of those matches returned over 2.5 goals and in six, Rangers conceded two or more goals.

Our Heart Of Midlothian FC vs Rangers Prediction
Rangers have been the dominant side in such meetings and here they will be gunning for a 16th unbeaten outing against Hearts. While they remain favorites, Rangers haven't had a great run defensively.
This is a weakness Hearts will be keen to exploit, looking to build on their three goals against Rangers in the last meeting. Hearts proved strong in attack in recent league matches and will hope to carry that threat here. Our prediction for Hearts v Rangers is for Rangers to win and over 2.5 goals.
