We can confirm that we will play English Championship side Watford in a pre-season friendly in July!

The match - which was part of the Ryan Porteous transfer agreement - will take place at Easter Road Stadium on Wednesday 24 July, 2024 – with a 7pm kick-off.

Watford finished 15th in the Sky Bet Championship last season and will head to Edinburgh as part of their pre-season preparations, with 'Porto' making a return to Easter Road for the first time since he joined The Hornets in January 2023.

Full ticket information will be released in due course, however all Hibernian FC 2024/25 Season Ticket Holders will get their ticket for free, as part of their Season Ticket benefits.
