History of the Hibernian v Hamilton Academical fixture

Hibernian prepare to entertain Hamilton Academical at Easter Road Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The The Hibees are clearly on top, winning 61.36% of the games played between the two.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Easter Road Stadium was just last season, in December 2008, with Hibernian running out comfortable 2-0 winners in a Scottish Premier match.
