Rangers vs Hearts Prediction: Rangers to bounce back to winning ways

Rangers resume their Scottish Premiership campaign this midweek and they will take on Hearts at Ibrox Stadium. The full analysis of the match is available below.

Rangers - favorite to win

After a 2-1 loss to St. Johnstone in the Premiership last time out, Rangers will be looking to avoid a repeat performance. James Tavernier scored the only goal for the Rangers in the 74th minute. James Brown (at the 41-minute mark) and Nicky Clark (at the 62-minute mark) scored for St. Johnstone. The Rangers have struggled to keep a clean sheet as of late. The Rangers have allowed at least one goal in five of their last six games. But we'll have to see if that pattern holds in this game.

Hearts - looking to build on their last league win

Hearts are coming into this matchup on the heels of a 3-2 Premiership victory over Motherwell. Andy Halliday scored twice (45, 47), and Lawrence Shankland added one (89) for Hearts. 61' Louis Moult and 79' Blair Spittal for Motherwell. In their most recent matches, Hearts have consistently found ways to score, scoring 11 goals in just 6 games. However, Hearts have still allowed goals in 6 of those games, so their defense could be more watertight. As it stands, Hearts have gone 11 league games without a victory when playing Rangers away from home.
