At 68 years young, Campbell has been around the block.

He's overseen more than 900 games as a manager, first rising to prominence at Dunfermline in the late 1990s.

This is Shaun Maloney's 10th match as a manager, with the 38-year-old leaving a plum job as Belgium assistant to take over from Jack Ross at Hibs in December.

Arbroath may be the only part-time team in the second tier, but they have lost just three league matches all season and enjoy a two-point lead with a game in hand over nearest challengers Kilmarnock.

It would be an incredible story if they went on to win promotion to the top flight.

Manager Dick Campbell took over in March 2016 when the Angus club were in League 2. He won that division and then went on to win League 1 in 2018. A spectacular hat-trick is on.

These two have met four times in cup competitions in the 21st century, with Hibs winning comfortably on each occasion.

All of those matches were at Easter Road though, with the scores 3-0, 6-1, 3-1 and 6-0.

The Red Lichties did knock Hibs out of the Scottish Cup in 1977, winning in Edinburgh after a draw at Gayfield.

We haven't had an upset yet in this round, so can part-time Arbroath claim the scalp of 2016 cup winners Hibernian?

If it's not too oxymoronic, many will fancy the home side today.

Dick Campbell's side are flying high at the top of the Championship, while Hibs are going backwards in the top flight.

Let's dig a little deeper on recent form, shall we?

It's wet but not nearly as windy as it often is given the stadium's proximity to the North Sea.

It's an old school ground, with just one main stand holding around 800 seated fans. The rest are standing on the terraces.

Sylvester Jasper make his first start for Hibs, with the on-loan Fulham winger replacing injured defender Paul McGinn, as he did as a substitute in Wednesday's 2-0 defeat to Rangers.

Norwegian teenager Elias Melkersen makes the bench for the first time since his arrival in January.

Captain Paul Hanlon and midfielder Joe Newell are still sidelined by injuries.

The hosts make one change as midfielder Liam Henderson comes in for Nicky Low.

New signing Michael Bakare is on the bench, along with a David Gold and Calum Antell, who started their careers as youths at Hibs.

Arbroath: Gaston, Thomson, C Hamilton, Little, O'Brien, Henderson, McKenna, C Hamilton, Stewart, J Hamilton, Wighton.

Substitutes: Low, Gold, Hilson, Swankie, Linn, Donnelly, Ford, Bakere, Antell.

Hibernian: Macey, Bushiri, Porteous, Stevenson, Cadden, Doyle-Hayes, Henderson, Doig, Jasper, Nisbet, Mitchell.

Substitutes: Dabrowski, Wright, Doidge, Mueller, Allan, McGregor, Scott, Campbell, Melkersen, Mitchell.

May seems a long way off as the cold February rain lashes large parts of the country but the numbers are being whittled down as we make our way towards what will be the 137th Scottish Cup final.

Rangers, Hearts, Motherwell, St Mirren and Dundee United are all in the hat for the quarter-finals after wins yesterday.

Today, we have two Premiership v Championship contests, with Hibernian visiting Arbroath and Celtic hosting Raith Rovers.

The action from Gayfield is being broadcast live on BBC One Scotland from 12:15 and you can watch that using the link at the top of the page. Radio commentary is up and running and we'll have text updates for you too.
