  • 5' Hibernian FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.

  • 16' Grant Hanley was booked on 16.
  • 17' Aberdeen FC is taking the lead after the goal scored by Kevin Nisbet on 17.
  • 18' Another substitution for Hibernian FC to replace Jack Iredale by Rocky Bushiri on 18 minute.
  • 23' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Jack Iredale suffering a number of foals already.
  • 28' Hibernian FC looks like a favorite considering 2 games won in last 3 matches with its main striker scoring 0 goals.
