Dundee made one change with Paul McGowan replacing the injured Marcus Haber, Hibs made four changes to their side. Dundee started well and had a couple of efforts on goal, Hibs attacked with pace and Scott Bain saved well.
But it Dundee who scored first when after a good run from Deacon he was fouled inside the box by Whittaker, and from the resulting Penalty Kevin Holt fired the ball home to give Dundee the lead.
It could have been 2-0 soon after but Holt's header was well saved by the Hibs keeper, Hibs did go forward but found Scott Bain in good form. But just as it was looking that Dundee would get to half time leading , their hopes were dashed when after a fine move Stokes fired home giving Bain no chance. To be fair a draw was about right at this stage of the game.
A wee mistake from Dundee nearly lead to a goal , but Murray put his effort over the bar when really he should have scored. Dundee tried to go forward , but lacked a main striker to lead the line. Wolters came on for Vincent as they tried to push forward. Hibs came forward but Scott Bain made a couple of good saves to deny the Hibs frontmen
A good point for Dundee on the day, they battled away and hopefully the International break will help with the injuries.
