Lee Johnson admits his Hibs side are 'fighting' for the fans as he looks to start 2023 in the perfect fashion against Hearts.
The Easter Road boss takes his side across the city for the second Edinburgh derby of the campaign at Tynecastle. The Hibees go into the showdown off the back of a 4-0 thumping on their own patch by Celtic and trailing the Jambos by five points in the Premiership standings - having played a game more.
Robbie Neilson's men are sitting third and can further strengthen their hold on the position while dent their rivals hopes of European football next season with victory in front of a packed out vocal support in Gorgie. But Johnson is out to deny them that chance. He wants his side to be 'super positive' as he made it clear what is expected in order to achieve a result with a 'simple as that' message.
