Motherwell vs Hibernian Team News & Injuries
Read all of the latest injury updates, Motherwell vs Hibernian lineups and team news for Sunday’s Premiership head-to-head below.
Motherwell
Motherwell opened their season with a decent 1-1 away draw vs Dundee. Played well enough to deserve the point and Bair was impressive. He scored the goal too. Motherwell are also into the knockouts of the League Cup after 3 wins and 1 draw were secured during the group stage in July.
The Steelmen are enjoying a solid start to the season and they will be eager to record a win in their first home outing of the new league campaign.
Bair scored on his debut so the Canadian forward is likely to start again. Defender Calum Butcher remains sidelined. He's been absent for many months now so the Steelemn got used to playing without him.
Predicted Lineup for Motherwell: Oxborough (GK), Mugabi, Casey, Blaney, McGinn, Miller, Paton, Souare, Bair, Wilkinson & Spittal
Hibernian
Hibernian have started the season in shaky form. They lost 2-3 at home vs St Mirren last weekend. This defeat was mainly due to the fact that Hibs had to play it sandwiched in between two important European clashes. They did much better on Thursday when beating Luzern 3-1 at home to take charge of this European tie.
The coming match is again sandwiched between the home win vs Luzern and the pending trip to Switzerland next week. With that in mind, Hibs might opt to rest some players. Ayunga is the only sidelined player though so the options for rotation are plenty.
Predicted Lineup for Hibernian: Boruc (GK), Delferriere, Fish, Hanlon, Stevenson, Doyle-Hayes, Campbell, Newell, Boyle, Doidge & Vente
Starting Lineups
Official lineups are usually released approximately one hour before kick-off.
Player to Watch – Tom Bair
Motherwell's new Canadian striker Bair opened his account for the club straight away on his debut last weekend. Now Bair will be even more motivated to shine in what will be his first home outing of the season.
Against the very leaky Hibernian back line Bair will fancy his chances to find the back of the net again.
