LEADERS Hibs face second-placed Dundee Utd at Easter Road in a game that could go a long way to deciding the Ladbrokes Championship.

I tipped Hibs at the start of the season and they are just 4-6 with Paddy Power to finish top dogs. United, just one point adrift, are 7-5 at Marathonbet.

Hibs are a bigger price to beat United tonight than they are to lift the title. They are 17-20 with Coral while United are 7-2 at Ladbrokes with the draw 5-2 with McBookie.

Games between the pair have been tight this season – a 1-1 stalemate at Easter Road and 1-0 win for United at Tannadice. Six of the last nine in Edinburgh have finished all square and this could be another.

If I had to pick a winner it would be Hibs due to the Kris Commons factor. Neil Lennon will be desperate to extend his loan deal after his blistering winner against Falkirk at the weekend.

Commons or Jason Cummings for first goal? Let's go the Celtic man at a bigger price of 13-2 with McBookie while Cummings is 4-1. To net at anytime it's 9-4 Commons at NetBet.

United hope to welcome back Tony Andreu who missed the defeat at Dumbarton and the Norwich loanee is 8-1 at McBookie to break the deadlock.

Ray McKinnon's made United difficult to break down and the goal conceded at The Rock was only third allowed in 10 games. This could be another low scorer and under 2.5 goals pays 10-11 at William Hill.

For anyone interested Willie Collum is the ref and he sometimes makes headline-grabbing decisions in live games. Collum has sent off five players this season including Callum McGregor in Celtic's recent 3-0 win at the Superseal.

He has booked 72 in 24 games so an average of exactly three which isn't too bad. For anyone interested a sending off pays 10-3 at William Hill while a penalty in the match is 11-4 at Skybet.

    Fancy hibs big time here. Sell out under the lights at Easter road. Jason Cummings back amongst the goals. Hibs with best defensive record in Britain clean sheet for me as Utd don’t score many.

    2-0 Jason Cummings to score at anytime 14/1

    Sometimes you just get that feeling.
