  3. Three changes for Terrors

    Dundee United 0-1 Hibernian

    Micky Mellon makes changes as United seek an equaliser. Luke Bolton and Nicky Clark are subbed for Cammy Smith and Logan Chalmers, those two changes adding to Lewis Neilson's replacement of Ryan Edwards five minutes ago.

  4. Breaking news...keeper makes save

    Dundee United 0-1 Hibernian

    Hibs have belief. They have pushed United back since the goal and Kevin Nisbet tries his luck with a snap shot with his left foot on the spin which Benjamin Siegrist saves quickly down to his left. This is better from Hibs.

  5. 'It's come from nothing'

    Dundee United 0-1 Hibernian

    Jon Daly
    Former Hearts forward and coach on BBC Sportsound

    It's come from nothing really. It just falls to Christian Doidge, it's a great finish. But it's come from a hopeful ball into the box and a miskick

  6. Dundee United 0-1 Hibernian

    Christian Doidge

    Hibs goal

    Some 65 minutes into the match and we have a goal! Christian Doidge clatters a rising shot past Benjamin Siegrist from 10 yards to put Hibs ahead, having been quickest to react to the block on Josh Doig's effort - that's his second of the season and his 20th for Hibs.

  7. Nisbet thwarted

    Dundee United 0-0 Hibernian

    Paul Hanlon offers a glimmer of hope of a breakthrough as the Hibs defender meets a corner kick, but the loft on the header allows Benjamin Siegrist to collect with ease. Hibs have the next chance too - Kevin Nisbet receiving Martin Boyle's cutback but a poor touch means the danger is cleared.

  8. 'Harkes will be disappointed'

    Dundee United 0-0 Hibernian

    Jon Daly
    Former Hearts forward and coach on BBC Sportsound

    That's really good play from Luke Bolton. He's positive and has the composure to find Ian Harkes, but Harkes will be disappointed he hasn't hit the target there

  9. Allan on to provide a spark

    Dundee United 0-0 Hibernian

    Scott Allan, meanwhile, is on for Hibs, with Jack Ross withdrawing Daryl Horgan.

  10. Harkes shoots wide

    Dundee United 0-0 Hibernian

    Paul Hanlon lofts a ball from deep on the left into the United box where Christian Doidge rises to meet it. It was asking a lot of the Welshman to do anything with it. At the other end, Luke Bolton does well to find himself free from a marker and he cuts the ball back to Ian Harkes - the midfielder shoots wide of the target. Neither keeper has made a save.

  11. Allan ready to play

    Dundee United 0-0 Hibernian

    Hibs boss Jack Ross speaks to Scott Allan as the midfielder prepares to come on. Allan has the talent to enliven this match...we hope.

  12. Frustration all round

    Dundee United 0-0 Hibernian

    Having been closed down at the edge of the Hibs box seconds earlier, just as he was about to pull the trigger, Kevin Nisbet shows his frustration by conceding a foul on the touchline, hurling his opponent to the turf.

  13. Hibs change to a back three

    Dundee United 0-0 Hibernian

    Michael Stewart
    Former Scotland midfielder on BBC Sportsound

    Martin Boyle is going to play in the right wing-back area and that allows someone to play in behind the strikers, which wasn't happening first half

  14. United push for a goal

    Dundee United 0-0 Hibernian

    United win an early corner but it comes to nothing. In the next chance that comes their way Luke Bolton's header from 12 yards goes well wide.

  15. KICK-OFF

    Dundee United 0-0 Hibernian

    Here we go. Let's hope the second half is memorable.

  16. 'United will be comfortable with the game'

    HT: Dundee United 0-0 Hibernian

    Jon Daly
    Former Hearts forward and coach on BBC Sportsound

    Without Lawrence Shankland playing, United will be comfortable with the way game is going, they could sneak something

  17. 'Eveything's been a battle'

    HT: Dundee United 0-0 Hibernian

    Michael Stewart
    Former Scotland midfielder on BBC Sportsound

    Everything has been a battle and a frenzy in the first half. Hopefully at some point things can settle down and the quality there can shine through

  18. Game crying out for a goal

    HT Dundee United 0-0 Hibernian

    Martin Boyle of Hibs is tackled by United's Ryan EdwardsSNS

    Martin Boyle has been unable to find a way through the United rearguard

  19. HT Dundee United 0-0 Hibernian

    Well, that was a tough watch. I'd be doing you a disservice to describe it otherwise. Far too often one team has conceded possession only to win the ball back 15 seconds later from a poor touch or pass by an opponent. Neither goalkeeper has had to deal with a shot on target.

  20. Pawlett ensures the stalemate remains

    Dundee United 0-0 Hibernian

    United midfielder Peter Pawlett rushes back ahead into his penalty box and gets to the ball ahead of Martin Boyle who was racing in to meet the cross by Daryl Horgan.
