A third win in six days for Hibs would see them reach a third semi-final in six months.
Motherwell are the visitors to Easter Road for Saturday’s Scottish Cup quarter-final clash with either Rangers, St Johnstone, St Mirren, Kilmarnock, Aberdeen or Dundee United waiting in the last four.
A heartbreaking Hampden defeat to Hearts was followed by a 3-0 reverse against St Johnstone at the national stadium and Jack Ross is determined to make in third time lucky and reach the final this year.
The Hibees will have to take care of the Steelmen first, but their form is good after beating Stranraer 4-0 last Sunday before clinching European football next season with a 2-1 midweek win over Livingston.
That suggests that there are unlikely to be major changes to the team tasked with booking a semi-final spot.
Matt Macey will come in for Ofir Marciano in goals after Ross confirmed he planned to stick with the English ‘keeper for the remainder of the cup campaign.
Ross is also hopeful that Josh Dog can return from injury after Lewis Steven filled in at left wing back on Wednesday.
However, Chris Cadden is unlikely to be fit to face his former club with Ross predicting the game will likely come too soon for him to be involved.
Predicted Hibs team: Macey, McGinn, Porteous, Hanlon, Doig, Boyle, Gogic, Newell, Irvine, Nisbet, Doidge.
