Rangers have kept their unbeaten streak against Hearts going strong, not losing in the last 15 clashes and pocketing 12 wins. Hearts showed some flair at the tail end of last season in the Scottish Premiership, banging in eight goals across their last three games. Cyril Dessers has been particularly sharp against Hearts this year, scoring four times in three matches.
Rangers are tipped for a flying start when they head to Edinburgh this Saturday. Although they finished last season with a 3-3 draw at Tynecastle and lagged eight points behind Celtic in the title chase, they’re still miles ahead of Hearts who ended in third place. With a history of 12 wins in their last 15 encounters with Hearts, Rangers are poised for another victory.
Expect Dessers to shine at Tynecastle Park
Phillipe Clement’s team is expected to start strong, although keeping a clean sheet might be a stretch given Hearts’ scoring spree last season and Rangers’ recent defensive slips. A bet on Rangers to win with both teams scoring seems a smart move.
With Rangers having hit three goals in two of their last five games against Hearts, a 3-1 scoreline prediction looks tempting, especially with Dessers in top form, having scored four goals in just three games against Hearts in 2024.
