Hibs v Rangers | Wednesday 19th December 2018, 19:45 | BT Sport
The lead in the Scottish Premiership has changed hands more than Holly changed clothes in the jungle and there could be another switch on Wednesday night.
Celtic, Hearts and Kilmarnock have all been at the top of the tree but it’s Rangers who are in pole position to be there at Christmas. However, Steven Gerrard’s men could be sleighed this midweek if they fail to win at Hibs and Celtic beat Motherwell.
Hibs have escaped from the doldrums with back-to-back wins against Hamilton and Celtic – and if they played as the did against the champions, they have a chance at Easter Road here.
Neil Lennon’s men have won two and drawn one of their last four meetings at home and are 3/1 (BetVictor) to bag the points with Gers 19/20 and the draw 14/5 with 888. At the odds, Hibs look worth backing at 19/20 (Bet365) not to lose in the Double Chance market, while Hibs Draw No Bet pays 2/1 with BetVictor.
Florian Kamberi hit a cracking goal against Celtic and is 3/1 (Betway) at Ladbrokes to score.
Rangers have netted just four goals in six games but are boosted by the return to Alfredo Morelos from suspension and he is 17/11 (Unibet) to net. Ryan Kent, Ryan Kent, Graham Dorrans and Jamie Murphy remain sidelined while Ovie Ejaria and Umar Sadiq have returned to their clubs after a loan spell.
While goals have been hard to find for Gers recently there have 29 in the last five meetings between the sides at Easter Road including a 5-5 draw last season and 6-2 win for the Ibrox side. Over 2.5 Goals and Both Teams To Score is 6/5 (SkyBet)
