The Hoops and Hibs are set to go head to head once again, with the two sides playing this League Cup fixture at Paradise, this weekend.

The Bhoys have started the season in fine form and will be looking to carry that forward as they begin their quest to reclaim the one piece of domestic silverware that elluded them last term.

Last Sunday's 2-0 victory over Hibs was by some considerable distance the best performance that any Brendan Rodgers side has put on at Easter Road during either of his spells in charge, and...​
