Hibernian – ST Johnstone

Hibernian host a struggling Saint Johnstone at Easter Road, with the home side sitting 32nd on 8 points after two wins, two draws and two defeats, edging a 8‑7 goal tally. Johnstone, languishing in 7th place with 7 points from two victories, one draw and three losses and a slightly negative 8‑9 goal difference, will be looking to close the gap on the leaders. The two clubs have exchanged points in recent meetings, but the stark contrast in league positions suggests a decisive challenge for the visitors. Both teams will be eager to improve their standing—Hibernian hoping to climb out of the relegation zone and Johnstone aiming to maintain a top‑half push.
