With Dunfermline`s inability to get results away from home there has to be some cheer that this match is back on home ground. Jim Leishman`s team badly need some points as others around them continue to add to theirs. A managerless team can be tricky opponents and as John Park and Mark Proctor take temporary charge of Hibs, they will no doubt be crossing the Forth in search of three points.

Hibernian Home Milestones

It`s almost four years since Dunfermline recorded an SPL win over Hibs at East End Park. After the Edinburgh side smashed their thirteen year gap without a win with their 4-1 victory back in March 2005, they have continue that winning habit. There was some payback for Dunfermline with the famous 3-0 win in the CIS Insurance Cup in November 2005, the last meeting of the clubs at East End Park.

Hibs have only one win to their credit away from home this season.  That at the troubled Tannadice.  The Pars away form is contrasted by a fairly good home record. Wins over St Mirren and Kilmarnock, a draw against Rangers and a narrow and somewhat unlucky defeat at the hands of Hearts on the opening day of the season.  That of course is darkened by the unwelcome defeats at Motherwell and Inverness in the last two fixtures.
