Hibernian 4, Dundee 0, Easter Road, William Hill Premiership, 13th April 2025

Dundee started with the same team as last week in a bid to get vital points facing a inform Hibs side.The game was very open and Hibs were good when they used their pace attacking the Dundee defence.

At last the Dark Blues did launch an attack and won a free kick 40 yards out. The Hibs defence expected a high ball and a low pass gave Simon Murray a shooting opportunity from a tight angle but Jordan Smith saved.

Dundee struggled in the first half and Hibs had a great chance but lucky for the dee they hit the post.

But just before half-time Hibs took the lead when Bushiri volley the ball in from close range. At least it was only 1-0 at half-time.

Second half and Dundee made one change when  Imari Samuels came on  for Larkeche at left back.

Dundee did start well and had a good 10-15 minute spell, but after that Hibs took control of the game and scored three goals in a 15 minute spell to totally put the game to bed. 

Many Dundee fans were away after that and I stayed to the end to see out the game. 

The last five games now will be massive and not great with Hearts being in the bottom six and likely a trip to Tynecastle to face them. 

Dundee: Carson, McGhee (Ingram 69), Shaughnessy (c), Clark Robertson, Larkeche (Samuels at half time), Mulligan, Sylla, Finlay Robertson, Tiffoney (Palmer-Houlden 60), Murray, Adewumi (Reilly 79). Unused Subs: McCracken (gk), Koumetio, Garza, Portales, Donnelly.

Referee: Chris Graham.
