We've seen goals when they've gone head-to-head historically, and neither Neil Critchley or Philippe Clement has served up too many 0-0s lately either.

Goal Statistics

Rangers's defensive record is to be admired, Philippe Clement's men having conceded 1 or less in 5 consecutive Premiership outings. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.3 for Heart of Midlothian makes sense in this context.

Rangers have been reliable in front of goal of late, finding the net in 17 consecutive Premiership games. Their PG of 1.6 against Heart of Midlothian on Sunday suggests that run is likely to continue.
