Next up for Hibs, Dundee

***Billy Whizz*** · 13-11-2020 12:21 PM

After watching Scotland qualify last night, got my mojo back for Football
Big game for us on Sunday, need a win for many reasons
Was reading the match preview on Hibs official site, and the fact that we’ve injuries and players on Scotland duty, but Doidge is suspended, didn’t know that
Wonder if we’ll play Boyle, or Murphy more central

**B.H.F.C** · 13-11-2020 12:25 PM

I’d play the strongest available team. We need to try and get some form back and get going again.

I’d go with a front three of Boyle, Nisbet and Murphy with Doidge suspended. I think that is something we should be looking at, regardless, so would be the perfect opportunity to do it.

Agreed, that's what I'd like to see us try longer term.

Midfield 3 on Sunday of Newell, Mallan and Hallberg

My team would be:

Barnes
McGinn McGregor Hanlon Mackie
Newell Mallan Murphy

In that case, I'm now back to hating international football.

Need to give Gray a run out and have McGinn on the bench just in case

I didn't know he was suspended either, I better change my first scorer prediction then!

Wee fat huns worry me too - but just because of their effect on the gene pool.

***Baldy Foghorn*** · 14-11-2020 05:47 PM

Does anyone know if we have already qualified with 9 points?

Yes, already through at worst as a highest runner up. Need to win to finish as one of the 4 seeds.

Need to win in 90 minutes too to get seeded, a win on penalties would see us top the group but not as one of the top four group winners.

Premier Sports 1.

**where'stheslope** · 14-11-2020 05:20 PM

This is a game we should always win, Hertz took 6 of them, tho' they had a good comeback in their last game (must watch Adam) we should still be to good for them!!!

If we lose to a side just because of Charlie Adam then we’ve got rather bigger problems than I thought. Our midfield should be running off them at every turn, and the fact we’ll dominate the ball means Adam is much less effective. Their defence and keeper are absolutely honking as well. 4-3-3 is the only way I’d like to see us play Sunday.

Barnes
Gray McGinn Hanlon Mackie
Mallan Hallberg Newell
Boyle Nisbet Murphy

Is it a HibsPass game, or Premier Sports only?

Just shows how important seeding is. Huge chance of a quarter final.

I think seedings in cups is a nonsense anyway. Hopefully we win the game anyway but seeding really shouldn’t come in to it. We will need to beat the best teams somewhere down the line to win it.

So do I, it should be an open draw, and I say that in the same breath that everyone should enter the Scottish cup at the same stage, but it’ll never happen. The broadcasters want the biggest games at the latest stages. We will need to beat them, but limiting the amount of them we need to beat would be ideal.
