Team News

Hibernian
Dundee United
  • Hibernian manager David Gray named two changes to the Hibs team that drew in the Edinburgh derby 1-1 with Hearts at Easter Road, before they had to share the spoils with the Staggies in a goalless draw in Dingwall on Wednesday night.
  • Josef Bursik continued in goal behind an unchanged back four of Lewis Miller, Marvin Ekpiteta, Warren O'Hora and Jordan Obita. Nectarios Triantis was joined by the returning club captain Joe Newell in midfield after he missed the derby through suspension.
  • Martin Boyle, Junior Hoilett and Élie Youan continued as the three in support of lone striker Mykola Kuharevich, who netted the derby opener on Sunday, as he took Dwight Gayle's spot in the starting eleven.
  • Dundee United manager Jim Goodwin named an unchanged Terrors team that lost late on by a sole goal to Aberdeen at Pittodrie, before Motherwell came to Tannadice and beat United 2-1 in their midweek match.
  • Jack Walton continued in goal behind a back three of Kevin Holt, Declan Gallagher and Emmanuel Adegboyega. Will Ferry and Luca Stephenson remained at left wing-back and right wing-back respectively.
  • David Babunski and Vicko Sevelj were given the nod in the middle of the park once more. Glenn Middleton and Kristijan Trapanovski supported lone striker Sam Dalby, who netted their equaliser against Motherwell on Wednesday night.

Prediction

  • Hibernian host Dundee United in one of two Scottish Premiership matches this Sunday, with both teams desperate to get back to winning ways this weekend.
  • Hibs have now won just one of their last six Scottish Premiership meetings with Ross County after their goalless draw in Dingwall on Wednesday night. The Hibees rose from 12th place to 11th spot as a result, thanks to city rivals Hearts losing to Kilmarnock, but it's not good enough for a side with European aspirations. They must start turning draws into victories to ascend up the league table.
  • Dundee United have suffered back-to-back Scottish Premiership defeats, after previously losing just one of their eight league matches beforehand, as they couldn't gain revenge on Motherwell in midweek after the Steelmen knocked them out of the League Cup in September. The Terrors have already won a league game in Edinburgh this season, so would love to repeat the feat this weekend.
  • Dundee United beat Hibs last month with two injury time goals at Tannadice, but the last two league meetings at Easter Road have ended in draws so a third consecutive share of the spoils wouldn't be a surprise.
