Team News
Kilmarnock
Hibernian
- Derek McInnes named one change to the Kilmarnock team that fell to a 2-1 defeat to Motherwell at Fir Park, before they lost their last Scottish Premiership match at Rugby Park 1-0 to Ross County prior to the international break.
- Robbie Deas, Stuart Findlay and Lewis Mayo continued at the back. Left wing-back Tom Davies made his Killie debut at Corrie Ndaba's expense. Danny Armstrong on the other flank had a penalty saved against the Staggies.
- There was no place in the matchday squad for star striker and club captain Kyle Vassell. Andrew Dallas was sat amongst the substitutes after joining Killie on loan from Barnsley.
- Nick Montgomery takes charge of Hibernian for the first time, after leaving Australian club Central Coast Mariners to take the reigns at Easter Road. David Gray made three changes as Hibs got over the Aston Villa loss with a win in Aberdeen.
- Will Fish entered the Hibees' defence - replacing Rocky Bushiri - to join Lewis Stevenson, Paul Hanlon and Lewis Miller in the back four. Jordan Obita is injured, and made way for Hibs' talisman Martin Boyle to return.
- The Australian international and Élie Youan started on the right and left flank respectively, supporting lone striker Dylan Vente. Attacking duo Adam Le Fondre and Christian Doidge came off the bench to score at Pittodrie so could start here.
