Hibernian form and stats

Last season, Hibernian's League Cup journey ended in the final.

A nice win for Hibernian last time playing, versus St. Johnstone. That was also a home game and the match ended 4-0 with McGinn and Scott scoring for the victors. As indicated by the result mentioned above, Hibernian played a great game against St. Johnstone and beat them comfortably. Expectations are high for this one. What a game it was for Scott when beating St. Johnstone, applying the finishing touch to three goals! Scott, an attacker, was the champion player for the team in that match, collecting a rating of 9.23 (out of 10). Scott scored three goals and hit two key passes.

Previous to that game, a Premiership home match hosting St. Johnstone in a game that was won 4-0.

The manager Gray will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Falkirk in only three days.

Clyde form and stats

Clyde was sent out of League Cup in the group stage last season.

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Clyde so far with only 16 points returning home. The records show 3-7-8 (win-draw-lose).

It might be tough going out on the road again for Clyde, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 1-2 versus Dumbarton.

The game before that, in the League One, was lost at home, a 0-5 defeat against Airdrieonians.

A new game in only four days for Clyde, the League Cup home match versus Bonnyrigg Rose Athletic. Busy days.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Clyde as they have only managed to score 16 times from 18 away games in the league. As opposed to that, Clyde have seen the ball go into their own net 26 times on the road.
