Hibernian, Recent FormHibernian will be reasonably happy to come away from their match against Hearts with a 1-1 draw and a valuable point. During that encounter they had 44% possession and had 21 attempts on goal with 5 on target, while their opponents hit 2 of their 14 shots on goal.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 8 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 11, and leading to valuable points being dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 10 games.
They've had a terrible run of form at Easter Road Stadium recently and having lost 4 of their last 6 home games managing just 1 win.
Ross County, Recent FormA 1-1 draw against St Mirren will be viewed as a positive outcome for Ross County and a valuable point into the bargain. They achieved 41% possession in that match and had 5 strikes at goal, with 1 hitting the target, up against St Mirren's tally of 9 efforts at goal, 3 of which were on target.
Supremo Don Cowie will be closely scrutinising his squad's defensive frailties, his back line having shipped 14 goals in their last 6 matches, despite having picked up some points through the 5 goals they've managed to net. They have failed to record a clean sheet in their last 12 games, and so far this season they've failed to score in 14 of their 27 games.
An away win for Ross County is just a distant memory, having not won on the road in 12 games.
On an individual basis, Simon Murray will be looking to cause Hibernian some problems having scored 3 goals in Ross County's last 6 away games in the league.
In the previous encounter between these sides, both teams grabbed goals, with the match finishing in a 2-2 draw.
Hibs have conceded at least one goal in each of their last 3 league meetings with The Staggies.
It has been a share of the points the last 2 times these sides have met in the league, with the game ending in a draw on both occasions; that said, Ross County may be feeling slightly more positive, having built up a run of 3 matches undefeated against their opponents.
Hibs player Martin Boyle will be looking to get on the scoresheet again against Ross County, having scored 3 goals in the last 5 league meetings between the teams.
With only Josh Campbell (Ankle) and Jake Doyle-Hayes (Ankle) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Nick Montgomery will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
Don Cowie has a number of injury concerns in his Ross County squad to contend with: Scott Allardice (Knee), Ross Callachan (Cruciate ligament), Will Nightingale (Hamstring), Connor Randall (Unknown) and Dylan Smith (Ankle)
