Kevin Nisbet is progressing 'really well' in his rehab from long-term injury as Hibs delivered a detailed update on the Scotland star and the likes of Kyle Magennis and Aiden McGeady.
The Easter Road club have a lot of key men on the sidelines at present with the players at different stages of their recovery process. Lee Johnson has had a busy summer of wheeling and dealing in the transfer market so far. A number of his new additions are settling in well at the club and the squad will be further boosted by the return of the injured stars.
Rangers are the opposition this weekend as the Hibees look to bounce back from their defeat at Livingston. They've won one, drawn one and lost one of their opening three games and will be looking to bring the Light Blues' 100 per cent record to an end in the capital. Johnson could have Rocky Bushiri and Josh Campbell back for the showdown in a boost. Elias Melkersen came off in the clash at the Tony Macaroni Arena and has since been working with the medical team. The knock is not as bad as first feared with early signings suggesting it's just a minor ankle knock.
