2.22Tip and bets
The visitors have been playing very poorly this season. Perhaps even the players themselves do not believe that they will be able to avoid relegation from the Championship. There are no signs of improvement in the game yet, so we suggest giving preference to the hosts. Hamilton have not demonstrated brilliant results either, but still look much stronger than their opponents.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (-1) on Hamilton for 2.30
Bet on total
The hosts are the most productive team outside the Championship top four, so Hamilton will probably be able to take advantage of their opponent weaknesses in defense. The visitors concede quite a lot, so we suggest betting on the total over.
Our prediction is total over 2.5 goals for 1.70
Bet on the first half
We don't expect the opponents to go forward in force immediately after the starting whistle. It will obviously take time to get to know each other. In this scenario, a draw at the end of the first half is likely.
Our prediction is a draw in the first half at 2.30
