The Easter Road side have already seen off Brora Rangers 3-1 in the Capital, and defeated Cove Rangers 2-1 in Aberdeenshire at the weekend.

The two teams haven’t faced off in a competitive match in nearly 50 years and of the 11 previous meetings Hibs have won eight, Forfar one, and there have been two draws.

Jack Ross is without 11 first-team players and will have a skeleton squad to choose from, but the Hibs boss is pretty relaxed overall.

We’ll have all the updates from Station Park right here.
