Hibernian have been part of Scottish football since 1875, rooted at Easter Road Stadium and familiar enough to Celtic supporters to need little introduction. Their honours record, as framed here, runs to one Scottish Cup and one League Cup – modest beside the country’s dominant clubs, but enough to underline a history with substance rather than mere survival.
The current squad is listed at 26 players with an average age of 26, and is valued at around £17m by Transfermarkt. Martin Boyle leads their scoring with four goals, followed by Owen Elding on three, with Nathan Lowe, Adam Mayor and Felix Passlack each on two.
Their league form has been uneven. A 1-1 draw with Aberdeen followed defeats to Kilmarnock, St Johnstone and Hearts, though wins away to Dundee and Rangers show they remain capable of awkward afternoons. Their away scoring rate, at 1.7 goals per match, is considerably healthier than their home return of 0.8.
Hibernian’s season has also taken in a League Cup semi-final and the play-off round of Conference League qualifying. In the Premiership, they sit tenth with seven points after seven rounds, with 26 still to play.
📈 Key stats and insights
⚔️ How they compare to Celtic
Celtic hold a clear edge: they outscore Hibernian by a wide margin and concede far fewer goals, with superior returns both home and away; Hibernian's best comparative angles are their away scoring and corner-winning, but overall Celtic are stronger across attack, defence and consistency.
