'Feels like a “Doidge hat-trick” type of game': Journalists' predictions for BSC Glasgow v Hibs

Our online team try to predict the correct result as Jack Ross' men compete in the Scottish Cup fifth round

Anthony Brown: This feels like a “Doidge hat-trick” type of game. Given the quality of their attack, Hibs should make it through to the quarter-finals with a bit to spare. The defence can be expected to enjoy a significantly easier 90 minutes than what they faced at Ibrox on Wednesday evening and have a clear chance to enjoy a rare clean sheet. Prediction: BSC Glasgow 0 Hibs 4

Craig Fowler: Hibs travel to Alloa to play BSC Glasgow because a team called 'Glasgow' play their home games in Clackmannanshire. The Easter Road club don't have particularly great memories of plastic pitches from their time in the Championship, but that was against second tier opposition and not non-league. Hibs will win this one and win it easily. Prediction: Away win.

Neil McGlade: I don't think this will be as straightforward for Hibs as is being made out. BSC are a useful outfit, well drilled and a difficult unit to break down. Jack Ross has the personnel to carve the Lowland League side open, possibly several times over the course of the afternoon. I'm confident Hibs will progress to the last eight but, just how easy a ride it will prove to be in Clackmannanshire, I'm not so sure. Prediction: Hibs win

Mark Atkinson: This tie does not float my boat. BSC Glasgow deserve their moment in the spotlight, but ultimately Hibs are most likely to do a professional job and win by a couple of goals. BSC Glasgow 0-3 Hibs

Patrick McPartlin: I've watched a fair amount of Lowland League games over the past couple of years and while there have been some fine performances from the likes of Kelty Hearts and Bonnyrigg Rose, I suspect facing a Scottish Premiership side may be a step too far for the impressive BSC Glasgow - even on the artificial Alloa turf. Thomas Orr and Thomas Collins have caught the eye for their goalscoring exploits, and Martin Grehan and Ross McMillan have seen it all before but I suspect Hibs will run out comfortable winners in this tie. Prediction: Hibs win
