In fact, it was at the Tony Macaroni Arena where Jack Ross managed his last game for the club as his side went down 1-0 while also having two men sent off, while Shaun Maloney saw his team concede three to Davie Martindale’s men at Easter Road.
Lee Johnson will be expecting his players to avoid a similar result, especially after the major confidence boost of Martin Boyle’s equaliser against Hearts in the Edinburgh derby.
The winger, still going through his version of pre-season, is unlikely to make an appearance from the start, but there are plenty of other post-derby teasers for the manager after his substitutes helped Hibs fight back against their arch-rivals.
This is the team we think he’ll go with...

4. DRC - Rocky Bushiri
With Paul Hanlon being fit, don't be surprised to see Bushiri drop out to allow Ryan Porteous to return to his strongest position. But Bushiri wouldn't deserve dropped with his performances. Photo: Craig Foy - SNS Group
