Dundee had the same team as Saturday after Charlie Adam who is out injured. They started on the backfoot as Hibernian pushed forward. Ryan Sweeney picked up a early booking for a slight push on Boyle.
First effort on goal was a Paul McGowan shot which the Hibernian keeper saved, it was Dundee's only shot on goal as they struggled in midfield which put pressure on their defence.
Hibernian got the break through when a good run by Boyle and he crossed McMullen tried to clear but headed into his own goal.
Second half and Dundee had a wee go and after a good move Mullen should have scored but put his shot well over the bar. Hibernian had a few more chances but failed to get a second killer goal.
Cumming and Griffiths came on for Dundee but they were left isolated as Dundee failed to get the ball into the box. Hibernian saw the game out which was not a problem.
Ryan Sweeney was sent off for dissent after petty decision from the Referee.
A poor game for Dundee over all, we really need to be more positive this coming Saturday when Hearts visit Dens Park.
