Postmatch editorial
Hibernian upset the pre-match prices
The final score was Rangers 1-2 Hibernian. It landed away from the bookmaker favourite and counts as a genuine market upset.
The decisive turn arrived late when Dane Scarlett scored 89' for Hibernian.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Rangers led Total shots 21-8, even though the scoreboard went another way. Rangers also shaded Possession 72%-28%.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Rangers the favourite at 65.4% implied probability. That market lean missed.
