- Hibs duo on the mend
Hibs boss John Collins is confident both Rob Jones and Kevin McCann will have shaken off injuries in time to face Celtic this weekend.
Jones sustained a dead leg during last weekend's 1-1 draw with Falkirk while McCann has missed Hibs' last two matches with an ankle injury.
However, the duo are expected to return to full training before the clash against Gordon Strachan's side.
Collins is looking forward to the game, telling the Edinburgh Evening News: "Celtic will be a massive test as they're absolutely flying and scoring goals for fun.
"They've been wiping the floor with most teams in the league, scoring five in each of their last three games. Their strikers are scoring and their midfielders are chipping in as well.
"We're at home though and we'll have a full house with a great atmosphere, so it's up to us to make sure we make life very difficult for them."
