THE LOWDOWN
We are back in action this weekend as we take on St Mirren at Easter Road – kick-off at 3pm on Saturday 3 February, 2024.
Nick Montgomery’s side come into this one off the back of a 2-2 draw with Kilmarnock last time out.
The Hibees showed good character to fight back from 2-0 down, with Myziane Maolida and Joe Newell on target in the second half at Rugby Park.
That result means we currently it seventh in the cinch Premiership table, with 26 points from 22 matches.
