THE LOWDOWN
The Hibees travel to Glasgow in midweek, to play Celtic at Celtic Park – kick-off at 7.45pm on Wednesday 6 December.
Nick Montgomery’s side come into this one off the back of a run of three straight wins in the cinch Premiership.
Dylan Vente and Will Fish got the goals at the weekend in a 2-0 victory over Aberdeen, which followed wins over Kilmarnock (1-0) and Dundee (2-1).
David Marshall put in a man-of-the-match performance against The Dons, making five crucial saves – including a penalty save to deny Bojan Miovski.
That result extended our unbeaten run to six league matches – dating back to October – and has moved us up to fifth in the cinch Premiership on 21 points from 15 games.
