Team News

Hibernian
Dundee FC
  • Hibs boss Nick Montgomery named two changes to the Hibernian team that advanced in the Scottish Cup thanks to a 3-1 win up in Inverness against Caley Thistle, before a 2-2 draw at Pittodrie against Aberdeen on Saturday.
  • Luke Amos made his first start for the Hibees in the Highlands, but made way for Dylan Levitt to accompany Joe Newell and Nathan Moriah-Welsh in the middle of the park. Emiliano Marcondes came off the bench to equalise so is pushing for a start.
  • Élie Youan replaced Eliezer Mayenda to start on the left of the Hibees' front three, as Martin Boyle - who opened the scoring - started on the right flank in support of Myziane Maolida up front.
  • Dundee boss Tony Docherty named just one change to the Dee team that enjoyed a 2-1 victory over St Johnstone in the Tayside derby at Dens Park, before a comfortable 2-0 victory at home to Ross County last weekend.
  • Having played a back three often this season, the Dee opted to stay with four at the back. Jordan McGhee and Owen Beck continued at right-back and left-back respectively, with Joe Shaughnessy and Aaron Donnelly at centre-back.
  • The sole change saw Dara Costelloe start on the right-hand side of the front three, at Zach Robinson's expense. Scott Tiffoney, who bagged a brace against County on Saturday, supported sole striker Amadou Bakayoko at the weekend.

Prediction

  • Seventh hosts sixth, as Hibernian sit five points behind Dundee with both teams tussling for a spot in the Scottish Premiership's top six places.
  • Hibernian have won just two of their last ten Scottish Premiership matches away from home, now failing to win their last three, after a draw against Aberdeen last Saturday. Yet it was on their travels that Hibs last won a league match, a sole goal success away to Livingston back in December. They haven't been victorious in eight league games since so could do with a win in this one.
  • Dundee picked up back-to-back victories over Ross County in the Scottish Premiership for just the second time, last doing so in August 2016, and have won consecutive league matches at Dens Park for just the second time this season. The top six dream could be a step closer if they were to win in Leith, but they lost at home to Hibs and previously drew 0-0 at Easter Road this season.
  • Hibernian clinched an impressive victory at Dens Park back in November but, having held Hibs at home already this season, Dundee will look to leave Edinburgh with at least a point this weekend.
