Nohan Kenneh says it's important that Hibs head into the remaining fixtures they have pre-World Cup break with a victory over Aberdeen.
The Hibees head north for the Friday night Premiership fixture with a club they are firmly in the race for third with. Lee Johnson's men will also face Ross County and Kilmarnock before a month's hiatus from league business and midfielder Kenneh insists they've done their homework on Jim Goodwin's team.
They know where they are strong but they also are aware of where Hibs could hurt the Dons at Pittodrie, with a difficult game anticipated regardless. He said: “We need to win the game and gain momentum. With these three games coming up, if we can win all three we are in a good step going into the break. We know their weaknesses and strengths and how they play. Training has been lively.

"Everyone is concentrating on the game and trying to get into the team. It’s important as teammates that we try to push each other.
"I feel like we’ve done that. We are all excited (for Aberdeen) and it's a first time up there for me as well. We are going there to try and win the game.
“It’s a massive game for us to get three points because we know they’re in and around us and they have that game in hand."
