Team News: Celtic (A)

David Gray has named his side to face Celtic this afternoon, which includes two changes from the weekend.

Both of those changes are in the back-line with Lewis Miller and Jordan Obita returning to the starting XI on either flank.

Miller comes in for Chris Cadden on the right-hand side, with Jordan Obita returning on the left after serving his two-match suspension.

Jordan Smith keeps his place in goal with Warren O’Hora, Rocky Bushiri and Jack Iredale starting in the heart of defence.

Joe Newell captains the Hibees in the middle of the pitch alongside Nectar Triantis.

The only other change is that Nicky Cadden has moved further up the pitch into midfield, with Junior Hoilett dropping to the bench.

Elie Youan and Mykola Kuharevich lead the line for the Hibees this afternoon.

On the bench, Gray has several options to choose from with Martin Boyle, Jake Doyle-Hayes, Dylan Levitt, Chris Cadden, Junior Hoilett, Dwight Gayle and Josh Campbell all named among the substitutes.

Nathan Moriah-Welsh also comes back into the matchday squad and is on the bench this afternoon.

Rudi Molotnikov misses out through injury, whilst Kieron Bowie and Marvin Ekpiteta remain longer-term absentees. Hyeokkyu Kwon is ineligible to play against his parent club.
