    Hibs have reached the last four in the last three cup competitions, falling to Celtic and St Johnstone in the League Cup and suffering a painful loss to Edinburgh rivals Hearts in last season's delayed Scottish Cup.

    Hibs striker Kevin Nisbet sent an extra-time penalty crashing off the crossbar just a few minutes before Liam Boyce tucked away a spot-kick to win it at the other end.
