Team News
Hibernian
Kilmarnock
- Nick Montgomery made two changes from the Hibernian team that lost their League Cup semi-final 1-0 to ten-man Aberdeen at Hampden on Saturday evening, before they drew 2-2 in Paisley against St Mirren on Wednesday night.
- Lewis Miller dropped onto the bench, as Rory Whittaker replaced him at right-back to make his first senior start. The teenager joined Jordan Obita, Rocky Bushiri and Will Fish in the Hibs back four with David Marshall in goal.
- Martin Boyle was also a surprise substitute, he made way for Josh Campbell to start in midfield against the Buddies, supporting lone striker Dylan Vente, and fire the Hibees in front in their midweek match.
- Kilmarnock manager Derek McInnes named just one change to the Killie team that suffered a 2-1 defeat to St Johnstone in Perth last midweek, before they bounced back with a 1-0 win against Motherwell at Rugby Park on Saturday afternoon.
- Stuart Findlay, Joe Wright and Lewis Mayo continued in defence, but were joined by Robbie Deas who replaced Liam Polworth in the starting eleven as Killie shifted to a back four. Matty Kennedy and Danny Armstrong provided width on the wings.
- David Watson partnered Brad Lyons in midfield. Kyle Vassell and Marley Watkins continued in attack, but substitute Innes Cameron - who came on for the aforementioned Vassell - netted the winner against the Well.
