Hibernian v Queen's Park (19:45)
While we're on the topic of Hibs, head coach David Gray has just been speaking on BBC Sportsound and he's given an update on Chris Cadden.
The right-back was brought off with a thigh problem in Saturday's win over Elgin.
"We're still waiting on scan results," Gray said. "Hopefully it's more precautionary than anything else.
"Speaking to him today, he's very confident it's nothing too major. We don't want to take any risks."
