Match Facts
Just one of the last 15 league matches played between Heart of Midlothian and Motherwell has been drawn (7 wins each), including none of the last nine (5 Hearts wins, 4 Motherwell) since a 1-1 stalemate in March 2020.
After their 1-0 win in September, Motherwell are looking to earn back-to-back away league wins over Hearts for the first time since January 2014.
Heart of Midlothian have won eight of their last nine Scottish Premiership games (D1), including each of their last five in a row. Hearts last won six in succession in the top-flight in December 2010 under Jim Jefferies, when their sixth such win came over Motherwell.
Motherwell are winless in 10 away league fixtures (D6 L4), although six of their last seven on the road have been drawn, including each of their last four in a row. The last club to draw five successive away games in Scotland’s top-flight were Dundee United from November 2010 to January 2011.
Heart of Midlothian’s Lawrence Shankland is one goal shy of scoring his 50th in the Scottish Premiership, netting eight for Dundee United and 41 for Hearts. Shankland has scored 11 goals in his last 10 league appearances, including four in his last three.
