The Hibernian Development Squad travel to Montgomery Park this week to face Penicuik Athletic.

Darren McGregor’s team will face the Cuikie on Tuesday 8 July; kick-off 7:30pm.

The Lowdown

The youngsters have made an impressive start to pre-season despite missing several regular players in the squad due to their inclusion in the First Team training camp in the Netherlands.

Back-to-back 3-2 away wins over Haddington Athletic and Berwick Rangers sees the Hibees head into Tuesday’s match-up in great form.

Jamie McMurdo’s terrific long-range effort opened the scoring at Shielfield Park, before Luke Davidson and Jackson Thomson netted either side of half-time.
