A Caley Thistle fightback is looking unlikely and it is Hibs who are threatening a second as Australia winger Martin Boyle fires a low drive just wide of the far post.

And that's the last we'll see of Kevin van Veen this afternoon as he heads off with David Watson.

On come Kyle Vassell and Liam Donnelly.

Cove had made a change of their own, with Paul McGowan on for Blair Yule.

We haven't seen too much of Kilmarnock's big January signing on his first start for the club.

Maybe he's still hiding behind the post.

Dylan Levitt has made the difference for Hibs since coming on at half time.

The midfielder helped set up the only goal of the game and this time forces a fine diving stop from goalkeeper Mark Ridgers with a powerfully pot shot.

Plenty of attacking opportunities for Bonnyrigg since Aberdeen's triple change.

Lee Currie wastes a decent free-kick chance before Ross Gray tests Ross Doohan with a strong effort from the edge of the box.

Two fans' favourites are on for the Bonnyrigg as captain Jonny Stewart and target man Keiran McGachie come on to try and make an impact for the trailing visitors.

The wait for Bojan Miovski's hat-trick goes on...

My goodness, what a reception he received just there as he departed.

That man is not loved here, he's adored.

Defiant defending from Callum Connolly and Conor Doan thwarts Aberdeen from lashing in a third after Angus Mailer failed to effectively clear a dangerous cross from the right flank.

After Graeme Shinnie did not return for the second 45, Neil Warnock now makes a further three substitutions. There will be no hat-trick for Bojan Miovski as he heads off as one of the changes.

Kilmarnock resorting to pot shots in search of a second.

Matty Kennedy and Marley Watkins both fire well over from distance.

Hibs boss Nick Montgomery is obviously concerned with his side's first half showing and has made two changes at the break.

Dylan Levitt comes into midfield and Elie Youan is up front, with Luke Amos and Eliezer Mayenda making way.

A lot of the chat at Kilmarnock in recent weeks has surrounded the bolstering of their frontline with Kevin van Veen and Greg Stewart.

Right now though, this man is undroppable.

It's two goals in four days - and nine for the season - for Marley Watkins.

Bojan Miovski is denied his hat-trick by a fine fingertip save.

The forward's 20-yard free-kick nearly sneaks inside the post, but Paddy Martin was at hand to keep the effort out.

Away we go again at Pittodrie.

The rest of the matches will soon follow.

Elsewhere, in the Championship, there's yet to be a goal between Dunfermline and Queen's Park.

If we get any in the second half, you'll find out here.

Saturday's action finishes at Ibrox, where Rangers will be expected to progress to the last eight with a win over second-tier Ayr.

A victory will be a 20th for manager Philippe Clement, who has already won the League Cup while hauling his side right back into the title race.

An Ibrox return for pantomime villian Scott Brown will add a bit of spice to this one. The ex-Celtic skipper said he'd be "disappointed" not to receive a tasty reception.

Don't think he needs to worry about that...

Thistle have the lead through an absolute thunderbolt from Kerr McInroy - but that's not necessarily been a fair reflection of the half.

Despite having to make two subs through injury, Livingston have created plenty and had the ball in the back of the net through Tete Yengi - but his header was ruled out for a foul in the build-up.
