Danny Haynes, Daniel Boateng and Duncan Watmore could make their Hibernian debuts in the Scottish Cup fifth-round tie against Raith Rovers.
Paul Hanlon returns from injury, but Ryan McGivern remains out. Scott Robertson is back from suspension while Paul Cairney serves a ban.
Raith include Hibs' Callum Booth in their squad, with the on-loan full-back free to play against his parent club.
Calum Elliot has picked up a hamstring injury and misses out.
Goalkeeper David McGurn and Paul Watson are injured while recent signing John Baird is cup-tied.

I think we are capable of a 3-0 win. Need a bit of a bounce after last game and the time off hopefully gave guys time to recharge batteries and give new guys time to find their feet.

Excited to see Stanton again and hope Harris can continue where to find form. Hopefully see some of the new guys too.

was looking bright and decent an hour ago - pretty dull and signs of wind / rain - hope it does not get worse as it can really spoil a game and in cup is a leveller.

Really good Raith Crowd coming though (still have family members who watch them irregularly) with a big number i know making a day of meeting old mates from all over / lunch / pub / game so it will make for that really good cup atmosphere...

Lets hope that we see some football that will get us off our seats - and Hanlon bringing that much needed calmness back to the centre of defence

Odd - I want to see Watmore on and tearing at the opposition - but have a bit of a fear that if he does it will not be a good day for Booth

Fitness test or possibly rehab - as saves a trip to East Mains.
