Sports Mole previews the Scottish Premier League encounter between Motherwell and Hibernian.

In recent seasons this Scottish Premier League fixture has produced plenty of goals.

Earlier this year hosting Motherwell won by the odd goal in seven against their Edinburgh-based opponents, while in 2010 they shared 12 goals evenly in a remarkable night at Fir Park.

Hosting Well head into this match having lost their last three matches in all competitions.

As a result, manager Stuart McCall may be tempted into making changes to his starting lineup that could see both Stuart Carswell and Henrik Ojamaa handed opportunities.

Meanwhile, veteran Finnish striker Shefki Kuqi could be given a starting role for visiting Hibernian.

Recent form

Motherwell: LLLDW

Hibs: LWLDW

Possible starting lineups:

Motherwell: Randolph; Hammell, Hutchinson, Hateley; Law, Carswell, Higdon, Murphy, Lasley; Ramsden, Ojamaa

Hibs: Clancy; McPake, Hanlon, McGivern, Wotherspoon; Claros, Deegan, Cairney, Doyle; Kuqi, Griffiths

Sports Mole says: 3-1
