• Anticipation builds as Hearts prepare to host Motherwell at Tynecastle Park on 2025-05-10 (kick-off 15:00 GMT), in the 2nd Phase of the 2024-2025 Premiership.
• There is no recorded managerial head-to-head between L. Fox and M. Wimmer.
• Hearts have accumulated 43 points to lie 8th whereas Motherwell have 45 points to sit 7th.
• Both teams have no missing players.
• Our forecast has Hearts in a 4-man backline (4-3-1-2), with Motherwell set to counter in 4-4-1-1.
• In their last outing, Hearts's highest-rated performer was L. Shankland (9.3), while Motherwell's standout was L. Miller (7.6).
• Both sides left it all on the pitch: Hearts won 3-1 against Ross County, and Motherwell secured a victory 2-1 over Dundee.
• Neither side is flying – Hearts 1-1-3 and Motherwell 2-1-2 over the last 5 matches.
• Hearts have clearly got the edge H2H: in 62 meetings, they've beaten Motherwell 30 times, with 8 draws and only 24 losses.
• With both sides enjoying similar home/away returns (7-3-7 vs 6-1-11) and scoring roughly 1.35-1.41 goals, a 1-1 draw seems on the cards.
