Motherwell v Hibs: How to watch Premiership showdown, and who is the referee

Motherwell will look to get their Premiership campaign back on track as Hibs visit Fir Park tomorrow night, looking for a valuable win of their own.

Both sides needed extra-time to see off their lower league opponents in the Scottish Cup fourth round, with Hibs eventually beating Cove Rangers 1-0, while the Steelmen needed a last-gasp Liam Donnelly winner to see off Championship Greenock Morton.

Ahead of Tuesday night's games, Motherwell occupied fourth spot on 31 points, with Hibs tucked in just behind on 29. Wherever this evening's fixtures leave them, a win will be welcomed by both sides.

Both sides are on similar form, with Hibs having won four of their last five, while Motherwell have three wins and a draw - ironically from Easter Road - from the same period.

But Motherwell will seek a win, having lost 3-1 at Ross County on their return from the winter break.

The last time Hibs were at Fir Park they ran out 3-2 winners on the opening day of the Premiership season on August 1, and Tony Watt scored in a 1-1 draw at Easter Road in December.

It's a 7.45pm kick-off in North Lanarkshire and capacity crowds are allowed back in, so there's still time to buy a ticket.

However, if you can't make it to the game, you can buy a streaming pass from Motherwell TV, priced at £12. Coverage starts at 6.45pm.

Man in the middle
