TEAM NEWS: ABERDEEN (H)

David Gray has named his side to face Aberdeen this evening in the William Hill Premiership – which includes four changes from the weekend.

The first of those changes is in goal, with Jordan Smith making his first league start of the 2024/25 campaign.

There are further changes in the backline with Lewis Miller and Jack Iredale both included in the starting XI. This will be Iredale’s first start for the Club, having made three appearances from the bench this season.

Rocky Bushiri and Warren O’Hora keep their place in the starting XI with Nicky Cadden moving to the left-hand flank.

In midfield, Joe Newell captains the Hibees alongside Nectar Triantis who retains his spot in the middle of the pitch.

The final change sees Junior Hoilett return to the team, with Elie Youan and Mykola Kuharevich leading the line.

On the bench, Gray has several options to choose from with Dylan Levitt, Hyeokkyu Kwon, Jake Doyle-Hayes, Josh Campbell and Chris Cadden all named on the bench.

There are options in the attacking areas too, with Martin Boyle, Rudi Molotnikov and Dwight Gayle all included among the substitutes.

Jordan Obita misses this one through suspension, whilst Kieron Bowie (hamstring) and Marvin Ekpiteta (thigh) are unavailable due to injury.
