Hibernian Victory – What You Need to Know

If you follow Scottish football, you’ve probably seen Hibernian pull off some impressive wins lately. This page pulls together the most recent triumphs, key moments and what’s next for the Edinburgh side.

Recent Wins and How They Happened

In the last three weeks Hibs have racked up two solid victories. The first came against St Johnstone, where a early goal from Keith Watson set the tone. Watson’s strike curled into the top corner, and Hibs never looked back. Mid‑fielder Ethan Ross controlled the midfield, breaking up passes and linking play. The final score of 2‑0 reflected a tidy defensive effort and a forward line that kept pressing.

The second win was a 3‑1 thriller at home versus Kilmarnock. Forward John McGinn opened the scoring after a quick break, and the team added two more before halftime. Kilmarnock pulled one back, but Hibs held firm thanks to goalkeeper Alphonse Areola’s three saves. The victory pushed Hibernian up to fifth in the league, keeping them in the chase for a European spot.

Player Spotlights and Stats

One name that keeps popping up is forward Liam Smith. He’s now on eight goals this season, with two of those coming in the recent wins. His movement in the box makes life easy for the wingers, and his finishing is clinical. On the defensive side, centre‑back Ryan Fraser has led the back line with eight clearances per game, helping the team keep clean sheets in two of the three matches.

Another stat worth noting: Hibs have averaged 1.6 goals per game in their last five fixtures, up from 0.9 a month ago. That jump is largely down to a more aggressive pressing style that forces opponents into mistakes.

Fans have been vocal on social media, praising the manager’s tactical tweaks. The switch to a 4‑3‑3 formation has given the wingers more freedom, and the midfield press has become more coordinated. Supporters also love the way the club is involving local talent, giving younger players a chance to shine in big games.

Looking ahead, Hibernian faces a tough away match at Celtic next Saturday. The team will need to stay disciplined and keep the attacking momentum going. If they can replicate the intensity from the recent wins, a point or even a surprise victory isn’t out of the question.

Whether you’re a die‑hard Hibs fan or just enjoy Scottish football, these victories show a side on the rise. Keep an eye on the goal scorers, watch the defensive steadiness, and don’t miss the next game – the excitement is only just beginning.
