There's usually plenty worth seeing when Rangers make the trip east to face Hibs, but this one won't be on the box to enjoy.
It will be an emotional night for the home fans, with it being the first game back at Easter Road since the sad passing of late executive chairman Ron Gordon, who lost his battle with cancer last week. A minute's silence is planned pre-kick off, then it's down to business for Lee Johnson and his team. City rivals Hearts are in action away to Celtic, and Johnson will be hoping they can take advantage if the Jambos come a cropper against the champions. The Hibees are only five points behind them in the table and will have designs on third place.
Cutting that gap won't be easy though. Rangers have only dropped two points since Michael Beale took over, and their only loss came against Celtic in the Viaplay Cup final. His first match in charge was an entertaining 3-2 win over the Leith club, and the last time Gers were on the east side of the capital, they had two men sent off and lost a late equaliser in a 2-2 draw.
Why isn't Hibs vs Rangers on TV?
Your Sky Sports TV sub won't get you access to this one. Can't have punters enjoying domestic football when there's Champions League action on, according to UEFA. They'll issue fines if league matches are broadcast at the same time as their flagship competition. This one is also a rearranged game, originally meant to be played the last weekend in February, but Rangers were at Hampden for the League Cup final.
Man City's trip to Arsenal had to have an exception made for it when the teams met at the Emirates. The Sky Sports package of showing 48 games a season also only allows four games per stadium until 2024, when it rises to five. The broadcaster has just one game left at Easter Road this season so has decided against showing the game live.
Where can I watch the game?
Fans will be able to view the game but they will have to purchase a Hibs 'game pass' and watch it on the club's channel. It will cost £12.99 and can be purchased here.
