Heart Of Midlothian FC v Celtic Betting Tips [25 May 2019]
The match
It is time for the final of the Scottish Cup, the oldest national trophy in the world. The final this weekend will witness defending Champions and 38-time winners Celtic take on eight-time Scottish Cup winners Hearts. These two sides have played in the final match of the domestic season, that was won 2-1 by Celtic. It is in fact Celtic that has won the last four matches against the Hearts. They have won all four of their Scottish Cup matches this season to nil, scoring 13 goals during the process. Hearts progressed to their first final since the 2011-12 season by staying unbeaten in five Cup matches (W4, D1) that included a replay against Patrick Thistle. A win will be a great tribute to the work that manager and director of football Craig Levein has put in at the club. However, the Hearts will have a lot to ponder after coming out of their league match against Celtic with a number of injuries to key personnel. Celtic made many changes to their first-team line-up in that game and have come out on top with a 2-1 score. Having already secured their eighth successive domestic title, Celtic will look to gloss it with another Cup title.
Key Statistics
- Both teams scored in four of Hearts’ last five matches in all competitions.
- Celtic have won their last 14 Scottish Cup matches, scoring at least two goals.
- Celtic have kept a clean sheet in their last seven Scottish Cup matches.
The bet of our experts
The domestic season finale was supposed to be a curtain raiser for this Scottish Cup final, but both Hearts and Celtic have decided to rest their key players. All eyes will be on how Hearts can stop the Celtic, but ‘The Hoops’ look in excellent form to put an end to their dreams. However, don’t rule out an exciting game with action at both ends.
