ℹ️ Team News: Ross County
Almost everyone can be considered, as there’s just a single fitness concern for the Ross County manager Don Cowie to contend with from an otherwise fully-primed group. Ross Callachan (Cruciate ligament tear) misses out.
It looks as if The Staggies look set to employ a 3-5-2 formation for the game with George Wickens, Ryan Leak, Jack Baldwin, Michee Efete, James Brown, Max Sheaf, Victor Loturi, Eli King, Josh Reid, Jordan White and Eamonn Brophy.
🗞️ Team News: Hibernian
Hibernian manager Nick Montgomery has to currently contend with reduced team options. Jake Doyle-Hayes (unknown injury) and Josh Campbell (Ankle injury) will miss out on this game. Nathan Moriah-Welsh will not be able to play in this game through being suspended.
It’s our belief that The Hibees will likely make use of a 4-2-3-1 formation, choosing David Marshall, Lewis Miller, Will Fish, Rocky Bushiri, Jordan Obita, Dylan Levitt, Joe Newell, Élie Youan, Emiliano Marcondes, Myziane Maolida and Dylan Vente.
⚡ Prediction
We feel that Ross County will have to play well to register a score against this Hibernian team who should do enough to score at the other end and edge ahead.
We’re therefore anticipating a good battle with a 0-1 winning score for Hibernian when all is said and done.
Let’s see how it plays out.
