- January arrival Kieran O'Hara, signed from Colchester United, took Will Dennis' place in goal. Lewis Mayo, Joe Wright and Stuart Findlay continued as the back three with Danny Armstrong right wing-back and Matty Kennedy left wing-back.
- The only alteration in the five-man midfield was David Watson taking Liam Donnelly's place in the starting XI. Corrie Ndaba made way as Killie went two up top, Marley Watkins joining club captain Kyle Vassell in attack.
- Hibs boss Nick Montgomery named five changes to the Hibernian team that progressed in the Scottish Cup thanks to a sole-goal success away to Forfar Athletic, before they were swept aside 3-0 by Rangers at Easter Road in midweek.
- Jordan Obita and Kanayo Megwa, previously on loan at Championship side Airdrieonians, replaced the ill Paul Hanlon and Rory Whittaker in the Hibees' back four to accompany Will Fish and Lewis Stevenson.
