Motherwell’s Fortunes

Motherwell’s 3-0 defeat in Edinburgh ended their hopes of finishing 7th in the table. That loss was only their third in eight games.

The Steelmen could still move up a place into 8th, but would need to win and hope Hibernian lose to Livingston.

These two sides have faced off on three occasions this season, with all three ending in draws.

Opposition Report

St Johnstone come into this game fighting for their Premiership lives. They are currently 11th, in the playoff position with nearest rivals Ross County two points ahead.

The two played against each other on Wednesday night, which ended in a 1-1 draw with the Perth side scoring in stoppage time to keep them in the fight.

It was a clean sweep for Dimitar Mitov, who collected 11 accolades at the club’s player of the year event. including the player of the year and the players’ player of the year. That has rounded off what has been a successful season for the shot stopper, where has missed only two games.

Motherwell successfully rounded off their final home game of the season in emphatic style, twice overcoming early setbacks to cruise to their third Lanarkshire derby triumph of the 2023/24 SWPL campaign.

Melissa Reid broke the deadlock for the visitors shortly after kick-off, with Morgan Cross restoring the scoreline moments later. Chole Muir regained Hamilton’s advantage, with an accurate finish on the half-hour mark. Morgan Cross netted her second of the game minutes after the second-half restart to draw the women of steel level for the second time.

In the latter stages of the game, lifelong Well fan Amy Anderson fired Motherwell into the ascendency for the first-time, with Jo Addie scoring the decisive fourth in the final few minutes of the game to secure the women of steel’s third Lanarkshire derby victory this season.

Head coach Paul Brownlie made four changes to the side that overcame a late Aberdeen resurgence to secure the three points with the final kick of the ball at Balmoral Stadium last Sunday. Rebecca Camron replaced Emily Mutch in the Motherwell goal, with Bailley Collins, Brooke Nunn and Sarah Gibb all returning to the starting XI.

Motherwell almost picked up immediately from where they left off in the Granite City after starting firmly on the front foot. Anderson came close to breaking the deadlock within the opening two minutes after drilling a dangerous right-footed effort from the edge of the box off the crossbar.

Motherwell’s early momentum soon faced an early setback, as the visitors found the breakthrough. Reid escaped her marker before picking out the bottom-left corner with an accurate finish across the face of goal.

Motherwell’s’ attacking efforts persisted and the equaliser soon materialised less than 10-minutes later. Brooke Nunn’s whipped delivery sailed invitingly across the face of goal, and Morgan Cross rose the highest in the box to power home a precise headed effort.

Hamilton restored their advantage shortly before the half-time break, with Muir latching onto Justine Strain’s through ball and placing her strike into the bottom-right corner from close-range.

Four minutes into the second-half, Motherwell netted their second equaliser of the game, with Cross bulleting Katie Rice’s floated delivery into the top-right corner, with her second header of the game.

In the latter stages of the game, lifelong Well fan Amy Anderson found space in the Hamilton penalty area before dispatching a composed right-footed shot into centre of the Hamilton goal.

In the latter stages of the game, Jo Addie secured the three points after converting Kayla Jardine delivery across the face of goal.

Motherwell’s final away game of 23/24 ended in a 3-0 defeat at the hands of Hibernian at Easter Road.

Myyzian Maolida opened the scoring from a controversial spot kick before Martin Boyle netter either wide of half-time.

Both sides took a while to settle into the game but it was arguably the visitors who created the better of the early chances.

Georgie Gent threaded an excellent ball through the Hibs defence but Paul Hanlon recovered well to thwart San Nicholson.

The two combined again moments later but this time Wollacott in the Hibernian goal quite easily saved the midfielder’s header.

Hibs started to turn the screw and were denied the opener when Martin Boyle’s sot from range was deflected off the post.

Moments later the home side took the lead. A ball was fizzed into Maolida and he flicked it onto the hand of the onrushing Stephen O’Donnell. Referee Iain Snedden wasted no time in pointing to the spot and the Comoros International sent Liam Kelly the wrong way.

Maolida was again involved at Hibs doubled their lead minutes later, as he raced down the left and curled a cross in for Martin Boyle to steer home.

Stuart Kettlewell looked to his bench  or an answer, bringing on Harry Paton for Andy Halliday at the break but within ten minutes they found themselves three down. Lewis Stevenson’s cross from the left was knocked clear as far as Martin Boyle who cut inside and powerfully fired past Liam Kelly.

Motherwell started to play some nice football, with some neat passing combinations in midfield but it lacked a cutting edge.

When they finally did carve open the Hibs defence, allowing Theo Bair to expertly slot into the net, the linesman’s flag went up and Sam Nicholson had drifted inches offside.

The Steelmen huffed and puffed but, a chance for Moses Ebiye aside, the Hibernian goalkeeper was rarely troubled and the Steelmen headed back to Lanarkshire empty-handed.

Stuart Kettlewell’s reaction to Motherwell’s 3-0 defeat at Easter Road.

• Overall performance was poor
• Harsh penalty decision
• Pulling together for Sunday

He scored his first Motherwell goal last weekend and Davor Zdravkovski is hungry for more. The North Macedonian talks about his summer international plans and analyses his first season in Scotland.

Stuart Kettlewell has been pleased with the way his side have conducted themselves over the last couple matches, but insists there is still lots to be playing for and there should be no letting up. 

The manager takes questions on the sensational season from Theo Bair and the inevitability of there being interest from clubs looking to secure the Canadian’s services.

A swift return to action awaits the women of steel following their dramatic late triumph over Aberdeen in the Granite City last weekend, with the women of steel returning to K-Park to face local rivals Hamilton in the final Lanarkshire derby of the 2023/24 SWPL campaign.

Chelsie Watson’s 95^th-minute winner at the Balmoral stadium ensured the women of steel continued their exceptional nine game unbeaten run and seventh victory throughout that time.

Paul Brownlie’s side return to East Kilbride with aspirations of securing their third Lanarkshire derby victory this season after convincing four-goal victories across both sides of the river Clyde.

The Tale of the Tape

Motherwell

The hosts have firmly taken the post-split fixtures in their stride, maintaining an exceptional unbeaten run of nine successive games. Four straight home victories have propelled the women of steel to the top of the split.

K-Park has proved to be a formidable venue for opposing teams this season, with Motherwell coasting to comfortable victories over Aberdeen, Montrose, Spartans whilst also overcoming Dundee United at Fir Park.

Victory in the Granite City last weekend ensured the women of steel’s momentum in achieving a seventh-place finish remained firmly within their own hands ahead of the final two games against Hamilton and Dundee United.

Hamilton

Lanarkshire rivals Hamilton sit precariously above the automatic relegation spot, level on points with Dundee United, but only one ahead on goal difference.

Three defeats in their last four haven’t aided Hamilton’s survival hopes, with the side from ML3’s solitary point in the last two months coming in a closely-fought 3-3 draw with Aberdeen at Pittodrie stadium.

Injury Update

Jack Vale returns from suspension.

Adam Devine returned to the action on Saturday against Ross County. Callum Slattery and Jon Obika will be missing from this match.

Motherwell’s Fortunes

Motherwell’s hot run of form in 2024 continued in the Highlands on Saturday, dispatching Ross County with a wonderful 5-1 win. Blair Spittal got on the scoresheet twice, with Harry Paton, Paul McGinn and Davor Zdravkovski also scoring.

That result took Motherwell up to 7th, albeit with Aberdeen still to play the following day.

Aberdeen beat Hibernian 4-0 at Easter Road, which take them up to seventh. With two games to go, the Steelmen are a point behind the Dons. Hibernian are a point behind Motherwell in ninth, with the three teams only separated by two points.

With a win, the lowest position Motherwell could finish the season is eighth.

Opposition Report

Hibernian’s hopes of finishing top of the bottom six were dented in their last match, as they lost out 4-0 to Aberdeen.

It’s been four losses, a draw and a win in their last six. Motherwell have the upper hand over Hibs this season, with Motherwell winning one and the other two ending in draws.

Myziane Maolida has been a shining light for Hibernian this season since his arrival, and will want to finish the season strongly. Since his arrival in January, he has eight goals and one assist in 16 appearances.

With safety secured and seventh in their sights, Motherwell made the long trip to Dingwall on a sunny Saturday afternoon.

A fixture that has seen raining goals this season, this match got off to a similar fashion.

Blair Spittal latched on a Ross Laidlaw error to put his team in front. Despite being pegged back moments later, Paul McGinn scored his first Motherwell goal and first goal in two years to get the Steelmen ahead before the interval.

From then on, the visitors were in full control.

Spittal scored another wonderful goal with ten minutes to go, before substitutes Harry Paton and Davor Zdravkovksi put cherries on the cake before the end.
