Dundee United v Hibernian match preview

Dundee United can show they belong in the top flight by beating Hibs in the William Hill Scottish Cup.

The Tannadice side have all but wrapped up the Ladbrokes Championship - they are 17 points clear and are about the last team a fragile Hibs side would have chosen to play.

The Leith side are still inconsistent under Jack Ross and their midfield in particular looks light. They are facing a United side full of confidence and they also boast 25-goal striker Lawrence Shankland of course.

United are strong at home, will be dying to send out a message that they belong at the top, and are a decent price.

Key stat

United have taken 34 of a possible 36 points from their last 12 league games.
