POST-MATCH Hearts vs Hibernian
iddaakolik Post-Match Analysis — what we said & what happened

Hibernian squeezed past Hearts 2-1 away from home. The game was level at 1-1 at the break, so the decisive goals came after it.

Our pre-match lean was Hearts at 41%, but a lead that slim is closer to a coin-flip than a call — and it fell the other way.

Over 2.5 goals sat near a coin-flip at 49% and both teams to score was close to even at 50%.

On the day, Hearts had 67% of the ball to Hibernian's 33%, shots finished 15-12, expected goals 0.70 to 1.93 — an xG gap that size says the one-goal margin undersold Hibernian's control.

For context: across their last 6 meetings in our records, honours were even at 1 apiece, 4 drawn. Those games averaged 1.00 goals for Hearts and 1.00 for Hibernian.
