We said: St Johnstone 0-3 Hibernian

Hibs should come into Thursday's clash as strong favourites given their impressive form in the past weeks, and it would not be surprising if they continued their fine goalscoring record. St Johnstone are unlikely to keep the visitors at bay considering their poor defensive displays of late, and it is difficult to see them taking any points. Read more.
