It’s our opinion that Livi Lions will possibly employ a 4-3-3 formation for this game featuring Shamal George, Nicky Devlin, Jack Fitzwater, Ayo Obileye, Cristian Montano, Stephane Omeonga, Sean Kelly, Jason Holt, Scott Pittman, Joel Nouble and Andrew Shinnie.

📋 Team News: Hibernian

It’s our belief that The Hibees might begin the game with a 4-2-3-1 system, starting the game with David Marshall, Chris Cadden, Rocky Bushiri, Ryan Porteous, Marijan Cabraja, Nohan Kenneh, Joe Newell, Elias Melkersen, Ewan Henderson, Josh Campbell and Élie Youan.
