Hibernian

Hibernian will come into the clash following on from a 0-2 Premiership win with the defeat of Aberdeen in their previous outing.
In that game, Hibernian managed 44% possession and 15 attempts at goal with 7 on target. For Hibernian, the goals were scored by Adam Le Fondre (75') and Christian Doidge (81'). Aberdeen had 10 attempts on goal with 3 on target.
The stats tell the story, and Hibernian have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, letting opponents get 14 goals in all. Defensively, Hibernian certainly have room for improvement. With no two games being the same, we must now wait to see if the trend will continue on in this next match or not.

๐ฐ Team News: Kilmarnock
The Kilmarnock manager Derek McInnes doesnโt have any fitness worries whatsoever before this match thanks to a completely healthy group available to choose from.
It looks as if Killie will probably opt for a 3-5-2 system for the game, utilising Will Dennis, Lewis Mayo, Robbie Deas, Stuart Findlay, Daniel Armstrong, David Watson, Kyle Magennis, Brad Lyons, Tom Davies, Marley Watkins and Matthew Kennedy.
โน๏ธ Team News: Hibernian
Hibernian boss Nick Montgomery has to choose a team with limited availability. Joe Wollacott (Thigh Problems), Dylan Levitt (Ankle Injury), Harry McKirdy (Heart Condition) and Chris Cadden (Achilles tendon rupture) are names that wonโt be on the team sheet.
Itโs our belief that The Hibees could decide to elect for a 4-3-3 formation, settling for David Marshall, Lewis Miller, Will Fish, Paul Hanlon, Lewis Stevenson, James Jeggo, Joe Newell, Josh Campbell, Martin Boyle, Dylan Vente and รlie Youan.
โจ Prediction
Weโre of the view that Hibernian and Kilmarnock should play out a closely-fought contest here.
There should be little in it, and a draw looks to be quite a realistic result. With that in mind, we reckon that it will be a tight encounter, finishing with a 1-1 draw at full-time.
