Hearts vs Dundee Utd Prediction: Both teams will score in this contest

The Hearts vs. Dundee United football game on Saturday will be the last game of the third of the new Premiership season. Given that Hearts has already beaten Ross County and tied with Hibernian, it's not surprising that the bookies think the team will beat Dundee United at home.

Last time, Hearts and Hibernian tied 1-1 in the Premiership. In that game, Hearts had 44% of the ball and made 12 shots, of which six were on goal. Lawrence Shankland scored the only goal for Hearts at the 22-minute mark. Hibernian had 11 shots on goal, but only 3 of them hit the goal. Martin Boyle scored a goal for Hibernian in the 95th minute. It's been a while since the Hearts played defense with this much determination. Hearts have given up at least one goal in six of their last seven games. In the league, it's been four games since Dundee United beat Hearts.

On the other hand, Livingston had 11 shots on goal, but only four were on target. In the 49th minute, Livingston scored a goal, thanks to Cristian Montano.
