Hibernian, Recent FormHibernian won't feel too deflated by the 2-1 away defeat to Motherwell, given that their opponents sit a full 14 places above them in the league table. They came away from that fixture with 51% of the possession and clocked up 4 attempts on goal with 1 on target. By comparison, Motherwell managed 10 attempts on goal, with 3 on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 11 and seen valuable points lost. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
It's been mixed fortunes for Hibs at Easter Road Stadium recently, having won 3 and lost 3 of their last 6 home games.
Élie Youan will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for Hibernian.
Livingston, Recent FormLivingston manager David Martindale will need to rebuild confidence in his squad after their heavy 4-0 away defeat by Rangers. Their share of possession in that meeting was 32%, while racking up 6 shots along the way, 2 of which were on target. Rangers had 20 shots on goal with 9 on target.
Having conceded 10 goals and scored just 3 in their last 6 games, they have been very fortunate to pick up 5 points. They have failed to score in their last 9 away games, and they have also failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
Livingston will not be enjoying their recent run of poor form on the road. They've lost their last 9 league games in a row away from home and not recorded a win on their travels in 9 games.
Livingston will be looking to forget their last league encounter with Hibernian, when a slew of goals ended in a heavy 1-4 defeat.
When playing at home against Livi, Hibs have scored at least one goal for 4 games in succession.
Livingston has lost the last 2 times they've faced Hibs in the league.
Martin Boyle has scored in each of Hibs' last 2 home games against Livingston.
With only Chris Cadden (Achilles tendon) and Harry McKirdy (Heart problems) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Lee Johnson will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
David Martindale has a number of injury concerns in his Livingston squad to contend with: Bruce Anderson (Head), Jamie Brandon (Cruciate ligament), Daniel Mackay (Ankle) and Scott Pittman (Rib)
