Season ticket holders at Easter Road haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Hibernian languishing in the 11th position so far. The guesting Livingston will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Hibernian and Livingston.

Hibernian form and stats

When playing at home in the Premiership, Hibernian have managed 1 win, 3 draws and suffered 1 defeat from 5 games. The trend of drawing games is also valid regardless of arena as Hibernian has four draws from their last four matches. Two draws in a row at home now for Hibernian.

The home supporters saw a 2-2 draw versus Ross County in the Premiership last time out and are looking for a win here. Preceding that game was the away draw at Hamilton Academical that finished 1-1.

A case of two points dropped for Hibernian in the Ross County match as a lead 2-0 was lost and what looked like a victory ended in a draw.

The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Hibernian handle that role? We have found three games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The win/draw/lost stats in these games are W2-D1-L0.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Hibernian, as the League Cup home game vs Celtic is only three days away.

The Hibernian fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 7 in 5 matches. On the other hand, Hibernian have conceded 7 goals.
