Hibs team v Cove Rangers revealed as Boyle, Doidge and Nisbet return for Jack Ross' side

Jack Ross has made three changes to his team for this afternoon's Betfred Cup clash with Cove Rangers.

Martin Boyle, Christian Doidge and Kevin Nisbet come in for Paul Hanlon, Jamie Gullan and Jamie Murphy.

Dillon Barnes continues in goal while Stephen McGinn starts his second game on the spin.

Hibs XI: Barnes, Gray, McGregor, Stevenson, Wright, Hallberg, McGinn, Mallan, Boyle, Doidge, Nisbet.

Subs: Samson, Mackie, Magennis, Bradley, Gullan, Shanley.

Ross revealed in the lead up to the match that he'd be down to the bare bones due to a number of international call-ups and injuries within his squad.

Ofir Marciano, Paul McGinn, Ryan Porteous and Alex Gogic are all on national team duties while Josh Doig is required to self-isolate after Scotland U-19s' match with England was abandoned midweek.

Jamie Murphy, Joe Newell and Scott Allan all miss out through injury.

Cove Rangers v Hibs kicks off at 12.30pm at the Balmoral Stadium. For all the latest updates check out our live blog.
