Almost a must-win game for them against the luckiest team in the league this Saturday. If they don’t win then the next game becomes an even more fraught affair for them. And St Johnstone’s results become increasingly more important than their own..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As funny as a hibs meltdown would be, i personally only care about their results to the extent that they affect our bid for the top six. If Hibs v utd draw then the bigger clubs win each of their respective city derbies that would get us top six (i think), if we win both our games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

10menwent2mow Posted March 30, 2022 Author Share Posted March 30, 2022 (edited) The only teams guaranteed top 6 with two wins are Dundee Utd, Hibs and Livi. All the teams on 36 could win both and be done by Livi winning both, Hibs winning both and Utd beating Dundee apart from Motherwell who would obviously beat Livi. In that scenario County would need to win both to deny Motherwell 6th. Two wins for the Dons would see them guaranteed to finish ahead of one of St Mirren and Motherwell or both if they draw on Saturday and Ross County, this would still not guarantee top 6 if Livi win out, Hibs get at least 4 points and Utd get at least 3 although our GD is better than Hibs so Aberdeen getting 6 and Hibs 4 would likely see us finish ahead of them. I'm going to predict that 6th place will be on 40 points come the split. Edited March 30, 2022 by 10menwent2mow 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dundee attract the biggest average crowds away from home of the 12 clubs in the league this season, at over 14,500, I'm sure I've read. Hibs have the lowest, around 4000 less.
