- Rangers and Hibernian have played one game each in the Premiership 2026-2027 season with Gers in 6th place on 1 point and Hibs 11th on 0 points
- Rangers have won 2 of their last 3 home head-to-heads while Hibernian have won 1 and drawn the other of their 2 most recent meetings.
- Thelo Aasgaard has 1 goal in 1 Premiership 2026/2027 appearance for Rangers and 4 goals in the Gers' last 5 competitive games.
Rangers have Ibrox edge
It is hard to know where these two clubs are right now, so the odds-on favourites for Sunday's game, Rangers, are too short in our eyes and the draw is too big at 69/20. David Gray's men have lost their opening Premiership 2026/2027 match, so Rangers are well placed to kick off their season with a win.
But don't expect a stroll for the Light Blues because Hibs are an organised, compact unit, built on a back three with a lot of structure and width from wing-backs. They can be dangerous on the break and from set pieces so should have enough about them to make this close.
The Gers are playing direct, high-tempo football at the moment and Derek McInnes' side are pressing hard and combining quickly to try to get the ball forward. Thelo Aasgaard is Rangers' early league danger man, but Rangers have drawn their last 2 matches, so we feel they haven't clicked in the final third.
Hibs have road bite
Hibs have won 3 of their last 5 competitive fixtures, but the back-to-back losses to Motherwell will sting and they will need to get back to winning ways fast. They have won 1 and lost 1 of their 2 away games in all competitions so should arrive at Ibrox with plenty of road bite.
The home side has won 1 and drew 1 of their 2 home games, so we can see the balance of this game tipping in favour of the hosts. Rangers beat AS St. Etienne 2-1 at home and held West Ham to a 0-0 draw in Glasgow, so Ibrox is holding up well.
The 11/20 for over 2.5 goals and 13/20 for both teams to score point to a lively game at Ibrox Stadium on Sunday. Rangers should have a bit more of the ball and a bit more of the winning edge, but Hibs are compact and have been unbeaten in recent Ibrox meetings, so we're going for the home team to edge out a close encounter.
