We said: St Johnstone 1-2 Hibernian

Although St Johnstone have proven to be a tough team to beat in recent home games, their recent head-to-head record suggests that this could be a difficult fixture. Hibernian have won five of their last eight meetings (D2, L1) with Saturday's opponents, and we think that they will continue that impressive run of results by claiming a narrow win this weekend.
