Hamilton vs Cove Rangers: Top Free Betting Tips

After playing three consecutive away matches, Hamilton returns home to play their next fixture in Scottish Championship on Saturday, 8 April. The Accies enter the field after a victory over Raith Rovers and Cove Rangers have the back of consecutive six defeats.

Match Result Prediction: Hamilton to Win

The reverse fixture between these teams ended in the favour of Cove Rangers but the Toonsers have looked in serious trouble in away trips. The Rangers have lost the previous five games away from Balmoral Stadium in a row. On the other hand, Hamilton has recorded two victories in the previous three games in Championship and Challenge Cup. The Accies have one victory and two draws in the previous five games at Hope CBD Stadium in the Scottish top-flight football. Given the current situation of both teams, we predict Hamilton to have the upper hand in this game.

Both Teams to Score Prediction: No

Cove Rangers have scored in all H2Hs with Hamilton but the Toonsers will have to be more disciplined in this game. Rangers have failed to find the back of the net in four of the last five league affairs. Hamilton has also arranged two clean sheets in the same duration. Offensively, the Accies have rattled the net in three of the previous five league home games and in the only H2H against Cove at Hope CBD Stadium. Considering the poor form of the visitors, we expect only Hamilton strong enough to get on the score sheet in this game.

Correct Score Prediction: 1-0 to Hamilton

Hamilton scored four goals in the last home meeting with Cove Rangers but the Accies’ attack has not been up to par in the recent outings. The hosts have hit the back of the net more than once in only one league game at Hope CBD Stadium in 2023. Academical has also rattled the net only three times in the previous five home and away league games. Although the Toonsers have been terrible defensively away from home, the current scoring ability of the hosts let us predict only a 1-0 margin for them.

Hamilton vs Cove Rangers: Form, Recent Games, and News

Hamilton Preview

After gifting an own goal in the early second half against Raith, Dylan McGowan and Ashley-Seal granted the team a 1-2 lead before 65 minutes. The previous victory helped the Accies get rid of the foot of the points table, having a game in hand too. The absence of injured Jamie Hamilton is the only hurdle in the squad when Hamilton aims to continue the progress.

Cove Rangers Preview

The Toonsers faced a second consecutive defeat at Balmoral Stadium with a 0-5 scoreline against Partick Thistle. Getting their sixth successive league loss, Cove interchanged their position with Hamilton to get buried at the last of the points table. Manager Paul Hartley’s focus on this game will also be marred by the absence of Central midfielder Fraser Fyvie due to ankle surgery.
