Hibs host Motherwell at Easter Road on the final day of the Scottish Premiership season this Saturday (12:30 BST). One point separates the two teams coming into this clash and so they are fighting amongst themselves to finish fourth.

The hosts are in better form after back-to-back victories, while the visitors are hoping to snap a three-game winless streak. My Hibs vs Motherwell predictions can be found below, accompanied by the latest team news and match odds.

Team News

Hibs are missing Rudi Molotnikov owing to an ankle injury but the rest of the squad are expected to be available for Saturday's fixture.

Tottenham Hotspur loanee Dane Scarlett came off the bench to score the 90th-minute winner at Rangers on Wednesday and he may be considered for start here in place of Owen Elding.

Football Odds

Zach Robinson is Motherwell's only injury absentee owing to an Achilles issue.

Boss Jens Berthel Askou might think about naming the same team that narrowly lost to Celtic in midweek.

Today's Football Fixtures

Both Teams To Score - Yes @ 4/6

These two teams are fighting for fourth place but this has meaning. The team that finishes in this position goes into European qualifiers for next season. Hibs and Motherwell won't need much motivating for this one and I think this will lead to an entertaining contest filled with goals.

My first selection is for Both Teams To Score - Yes, which has landed in each of the hosts' past four outings in the Scottish Premiership.

Additionally, this has been a successful bet in four of Motherwell's last five matches in the league. There were also goals at both ends in the previous meeting at Easter Road back in January.

Total Goals - Over 2.5 @ 4/5

Given what's on the line, and the attacking quality of both squads, I think there will be no shortage of goals in Edinburgh. Over 2.5 Goals is marketed at 4/5, which has an implied probability of 55.6%, and this threshold has been reached in all four of Hibs' past four games in the league.

For Motherwell, at least three goals have been scored in four of their six most recent fixtures in this competition.
