Hibs will need to pull off an unlikely double over Celtic to progress in the Scottish Cup.
But if anyone can beat the Premiership champions and current cup holders, it is the Hibees who are in the middle of a brilliant 15-game unbeaten run.
Hibs beat Celtic 2-1 on league duty two weeks ago as manager David Gray hailed two-goal Josh Campbell for doing the work of a player-and-a-half.
Striker Kieran Bowie immediately set his sights on a Celtic double with today’s cup tie on the horizon.
Hibs will know getting past the favourites would set them up for a right good chance at winning the cup which would also give them Scotland’s spot in the Europa League play-offs and the circa £5million that comes with it.
They’re already in the driving seat for a European spot through league position as they sit third despite pundits recently tipping Aberdeen to finish there.
Should Celtic win the cup, the team who finishes third will enter the Europa League play-off but Hibs would rather achieve that by lifting the famous old trophy themselves.
Their team for today’s massive clash is now in.
