The first of those changes sees Rocky Bushiri return to the starting XI, partnering Will Fish at centre-back. Lewis Miller and Jordan Obita both keep their places in the back four, in-front of David Marshall in goal.
The other change is on the wing, with Jair Tavares coming back into the starting side. Jair has made four appearances for the Hibees this season – all of which have come since Nick Montgomery joined the Club – and will start on one wing, with Elie Youan on the other flank.
Joe Newell will captain the side this afternoon, partnering Jimmy Jeggo in midfield with Martin Boyle and Dylan Vente leading the line.
On the bench, Montgomery has plenty of experience to choose from with both Paul Hanlon and Lewis Stevenson named among the substitutes.
Adam Le Fondre, Josh Campbell and Dylan Levitt are also on the bench, alongside youngsters Rory Whittaker and Josh Landers.
Josh Landers has had a strong start to the season, scoring regularly for both the U18s and Hibs Development Squad. This week, the 16-year-old has been training with the First Team squad and has earned himself a first appearance on the bench this afternoon.
Christian Doidge, Harry McKirdy, Chris Cadden and Jake Doyle-Hayes all miss out through injury.
