Watsonians vs Heriots 2 Prediction: An offensive-minded encounter ahead

Two high-flying sides, Watsonians and Heriots 2, will battle it out at Inverleith Park in round six of the Scottish Tennent’s Premiership. Heading into this game, the two teams are coming off consecutive wins. How will they approach this game?

Watsonians

Watsonians will look to keep things going in this game following a win over Hawick the previous weekend, a game that ended 31-40. However, that win was Watsonians’ third this season and consecutive victories, having defeated Edinburgh Academical and Melrose in prior encounters. In the meantime, it is worth noting that Watsonians started their season with consecutive defeats against Ayr and Kelso. This season, Watsonians have accumulated 18 points from five matches, positioning them 3rd in the standings. 

Heriots 2

Heriots 2 are coming off a win against Currie last time out and will look to keep things running. In that game, this team secured a 33-7 win, extending their winning run to six in all competitions. In that run, Heriots 2 defeated Selkirk, Melrose, Edinburgh Academical, Hawick, and Marr. This season, Heriots 2 have accumulated 25 points from their first five matches, which sees them sit 2nd in the standings, sharing points with first-placed Ayr. 

Expert Betting Tips

This is the first-ever meeting between these teams, and we expect them to approach it with their best tactics. While Heriots 2 are favorites, the home team, Watsonians, have been very good since their promotion to the top flight and can not be written off. Looking at the two sides, this game is surely shaping up to be a tough one to deal with. However, the two teams' offenses are doing well at the moment, and we can expect this game to end with many goals. Also, while the visiting team has more experience in the top-flight league, I think that will be the difference here, and with their unbeaten run, I am tipping them to take maximum points.
