1.67Tip and bets
It was difficult for the Rangers in the last three confrontations with their opponent, but there is a chance of success with the representative of Edinburgh. The visiting club must score three points on the road and get closer to the first Celtic. We believe that the teddy bears will take advantage of the experience and cope with the opponent.
The forecast is a victory for the Rangers with a coefficient of 1.72
Bet on the total
The visitors will certainly strive to win and intend to play cautiously with an eye on defense. Offensively, the Rangers have great players who are superior in class and experience to their opponents. It's probably not worth counting on a scoring extravaganza, since the opponents have completed two face-to-face matches in a row with a total of less.
The forecast is a total of less than 2.5 goals with a coefficient of 2.10
Betting on corners
Rangers will play attacking football and will probably spend a lot of time at the opponent's goal, but at the same time, Hearts will try to respond. There should probably be a lot of corners.
The forecast is that the total number of corners is more than 10.5 with a coefficient of 1.80
