Kyle Magennis made it four goals in his last five games as Hibernian beat Kilmarnock at Easter Road to reach the last eight of the Scottish League Cup.
The midfielder continued his scintillating form to put Hibs in front early into the second half and Kevin Nisbet headed in a second to secure the home side's safe passage.
A further blow to Kilmarnock was the loss of captain Chris Stokes, who hobbled off injured in the second half.

Hibernian 1-0 Kilmarnock
Kyle Magennis had a bit of miserable first season at Easter Road as he tried to battle back to full fitness after a long lay-off.
What a difference in the midfielder now that he is free of injury problems.
He's on four goals from seven games.
