Hibernian welcome Motherwell to Easter Road today. Motherwell had a good away victory against Falkirk last week and will be hoping to make it two away victories in a row.
Hibs lost out last week in a close encounter against Celtic at Parkhead. It was a five goal thriller which Celtic won 3-2.
In the only game between the two games so far this season, Hibernian picked up a great 3-1 away win. Motherwell will be out for revenge in this clash.
Hibernian have got the better of Motherwell at Easter Road throughout the years and of the 121 games played, they have won 65 of them.
Michael Stewart will be in contention for a starting place after recovering from a knee injury but full-back David Murphy is missing from the team and will be replaced by Stephen Glass.
One of the best talents in Scotland at the moment.
Striker Richie Foran will be hoping to return to the team after missing out last week’s victory over Falkirk.
Motherwell are still without Scott Leitch and Jim Paterson.
The veteran seems to be in fine form this season. The ex Hearts man scored last week against Falkirk.
