Team News
Ross County
Hibernian
- Ross County boss Don Cowie made five changes after the Staggies were swept aside by St Johnstone 3-0 as they went down to nine men at McDiarmid Park, before they bounced back from a goal down to beat ten-man Kilmarnock 2-1.
- Ryan Leak, Akil Wright and Kacper Lopata continued as the trio of County centre-backs behind Ross Laidlaw in goal. The suspended Elijah Campbell and Michee Efete were replaced by Josh Reid and James Brown at left and right wing-back.
- Connor Randall was joined by Aidan Denholm and Noah Chilvers, replacing Scott Allardice and Josh Nisbet, in midfield. Eamonn Brophy dropped to the bench, as Jordan White partnered Ronan Hale in the County attack.
- Hibernian manager David Gray named four changes to the Hibs team that suffered a late collapse at Tannadice which saw them lose 3-2 to Dundee United, before they drew in the Edinburgh derby 1-1 with Hearts at Easter Road.
- Josef Bursik continued in goal behind an unchanged back four of Lewis Miller, Marvin Ekpiteta, Warren O'Hora and Jordan Obita. Hyeok-Kyu Kwon was joined by Nectarios Triantis in midfield after Joe Newell's sending off in Dundee.
- The incoming Martin Boyle, who was given the captain's armband, and Elie Youan started on the flanks with Chris Cadden and Rudi Molotnikov making way. Junior Hoilett moved centrally to support lone striker Dwight Gayle, who replaced Mykola Kuharevich who netted the derby opener on Sunday.
