Confirmed Hibs vs Rangers team news as Philippe Clement goes tried and tested

Confirmed Hibs vs Rangers team news as Philippe Clement goes tried and tested.

In the Scottish Cup, two of the biggest clubs in Scotland will square off.

The early evening kickoff of today’s Scottish Cup fifth round is most likely going to be a tie.

One of the toughest matches Rangers could have been allocated is against Hibs, especially given the Easter Road men’s recent sharp improvement in form. Last Sunday, the Light Blues suffered their first defeat in a long while when Motherwell secured their first victory at Ibrox in nearly three decades thanks to a lackluster performance.

Their admirable draw against Benfica in response should give them more confidence, but it might also affect their mood ahead of another knockout match that is scheduled for three days later.Nick Montgomery, who seemed to annoy Philippe Clement by claiming that his team had not been fortunate in the two prior meetings, will be hoping for the best.

For this match, both teams have finally confirmed their rosters.

Hibs starting XI: Marshall, Cadden, Fish, Rocky, Obita, Moriah-Welsh, Triantis, Newell, Boyle, Emiliano, Myziane

Subs: Wollacott, Hanlon, Levitt, Youan, Mayenda, Stevenson, Le Fondre, Jair, Whittaker

Rangers starting XI: Butland, Tavernier, Goldson, Souttar, Ridvan, Lundstram, Diomande, Lawrence, Sterling, Silva, Dessers

Subs: McCrorie, Matondo, Roofe, Davies, Balogun, Barisic, Raskin, McCausland, McKinnon
