The Premiership returns from the winter break this midweek, with Hibs and Rangers meeting in a huge clash.

There's no love lost between these two clubs and this grudge match carries significant importance.

Hibs sit six points behind fourth place Kilmarnock with two games in hand so will want to apply pressure by winning here.

But the Edinburgh side were fortunate to progress beyond Forfar in the Scottish Cup last week. That also ended a four game winless run, with the Hibees winning just one of the previous six before the cup success.

Rangers' Old Firm defeat before the break will still sting and they now can't afford to drop any more points.

The eight point gap to Celtic can be cut with a win here, with Gers holding two games in hand at present and still with eyes of chasing their rivals down.

They beat Dumbarton in the cup on Saturday and still eye more signings in the window.

Must win

Rangers have to keep winning to keep pace with Celtic.

And as much as Wednesday will be a tricky trip to the capital, we reckon they'll have enough to get over the line.

They have conceded in their last three competitive fixtures and there's a softness to the defence which Hibs can punish, though an away win is most likely.

Venting frustration

Speaking of Hibs goal, it could come from centre forward Dylan Vente.

Had a good spell at the start of the season but has gone off the boil in a goalscoring sense.

However, with Hibs likely to score, his presence in the forward line could be there to take advantage and he's a good value bet to do so.
