Shaun Maloney believes Hibernian have a 'very good chance' of winning the Scottish Cup.
The Easter Road side face city rivals Hearts in the semi-final at Hampden, next weekend.
But before then, Hibs need to travel across Edinburgh to face Robbie Neilson's side at Tynecastle in a crucial league clash.
Maloney's side need at least a point to secure a top six place but the 39-year-old boss believes Hibs can be victorious in both games.
He said: “I think we’ve got a very good chance (of winning the Scottish Cup).
"We’ve given ourselves that opportunity.
“Anything can happen at Hampden, we are more capable of beating Hearts this weekend and at Hampden. I think we have to be honest, it can go either way.
“We have to be at our very best, both defensively and attacking.
“The mood is good, the players are aware of what we need to do to prepare us for this match, I think the semi-final will be very different.
“I really want the players to go and show their personality at Tynecastle.”
