Hibs starting XI v Livingston confirmed with Boyle, Hanlon and Tavares decisions made

Hibs have named their starting XI that will take on Livingston in their third Premiership of the season.

The club head into this one in a positive mood after Martin Boyle's return to the club was capped off with a last-gasp leveller in a 1-1 draw with fierce rivals Hearts last weekend. He has to settle for a spot on the bench again though with Jair Tavares, Elie Youan and Elias Melkersen picked as the attacking options from the get go.

David Marshall takes his usual role between the sticks and there's a return in central defence for Paul Hanlon after an injury at the end of last season. He partners Ryan Porteous with Chris Cadden in the right full-back role and Marijan Cabraja on the other side. Nohan Kenneh, Joe Newell and Ewan Henderson are natural central midfield options boss Lee Johnson has opted to go with against Livingston.
