Gray on Clydebank challenge, 2016 & injury updates

Hibs head coach David Gray has been talking to the media before his side's Scottish Cup fourth round tie against Clydebank on Saturday.

Here's what he had to say:

  • Has made players aware of Clydebank's strengths and says Hibs must "approach the game with the right mentality" as it's a "cup final" for the opposition.

  • Hasn't shared any of his memories of the Scottish Cup win in 2016, because he doesn't want to make it about him. Winning a cup is a key objective for the club at the start of every season.

  • Gray says he will make changes to promote freshness, but he is keen to build on current momentum and will still select a "really strong side".

  • Expects Clydebank to approach the game with confidence given their unbeaten record in the West of Scotland League Premier Division.

  • Nicky Cadden will miss the game with a broken nose, but Kieron Bowie and Mykola Kuharevich are available.
