In an ideal world, this may have been an opportunity to rest the talismanic winger ahead of the return to Premiership action, but with numbers so light, Jack Ross may feel he has no other choice but to play him Photo: Craig Foy - SNS Group
7. Kyle Magennis
After getting some minutes under his belt with two substitute appearances against Brora and Cove, it feels like the right time to give the deadline day signing from St Mirren his first start in a Hibs jersey. Photo: Craig Foy - SNS Group
8. Stevie Mallan
Hibs will have to break Forfar down tonight and Mallan's goal threat from outside the box could be a useful weapon to have. Photo: SNS Group
