Hibs could find themselves in the top six come 5pm tonight with victory over an out-of-form Motherwell.
David Gray’s side host the Steelmen at Easter Road as they aim to go an impressive seven Premiership games unbeaten.
Hibs showed determination and resilience in abundance last weekend as they earned a point after a 3-3 draw against Rangers.
Now, they will be expected to control the encounter this afternoon against Motherwell and deliver another vital three points.
Motherwell are currently five points ahead of Hibs as Stuart Kettlewell’s men remain in 4th spot despite just one win in their last six.
They were outplayed by Kilmarnock in midweek but managed to secure a valuable point. Can they upset Hibs in Leith today and go level on points with Aberdeen?
