Hibs will face Motherwell at Easter Road on Saturday in a match synonymous with end-to-end action and ill-discipline.
The last time the sides met, Jens Berthel Askou’s side were nigh on unplayable as they took an early two goal lead at Fir Park, with Grant Hanley’s early sending off virtually putting the game to bed before it had started. Saying that, he’s not the first and won’t be the last man to be given his marching orders in this fixture with six reds in the past 13 meetings.
From late equalisers in Leith and emotional Easter Road farewells to Fir Park hat-tricks, here’s a look at the last 12 meetings between Hibs and Motherwell ahead of Saturday’s showdown:
9. Motherwell 2-1 Hibs (13/08/23)
Not the most exciting match between the sides and certainly not Hibs at their best. Conor Wilkinson and Mika Biereth gave the hosts a healthy lead before Adam Le Fondre's late penalty made the scoreline look a little bit better. | SNS Group
10. Hibs 1-3 Motherwell (04/01/23)

11. Motherwell 2-3 Hibs (08/01/23)

12. Hibs 1-0 Motherwell (08/10/22)
Another match where the red mist descended, Motherwell's Connor Shields was sent off in this one for taking out Ryan Porteous when he was through on goal. 10 minutes later, the defender powered his header home to give Hibs the win. | SNS Group
