The second leg of the Premiership play-off final takes place at Easter Road on Sunday, live on BT Sport with a 3.30pm kick-off.

Hibernian lead Hamilton Accies 2-0 from the first leg at New Douglas Park on Wednesday, thanks to a double from teenage striker Jason Cummings.

Hibs boss Terry Butcher said: "The players want to see the job through and finish it off on Sunday. They're going about it the right way and its so far, so good.

"Hamilton are a good side. They've got good players and they certainly played very well on Wednesday night but, for once, we were ruthless."

Accies boss Alex Neil believes his side can still turn the tie around and claim a place in the Scottish Premiership for 2014/15.

He said: "We are more than capable of bouncing back after we have been knocked down. We need to take inspiration from the fact we have already done this sort of thing this season.

"We had to have an eight-goal swing on the last day of the season to have any chance of beating Dundee to the title and did our part with that incredible 10-2 win over Morton. At Cowdenbeath in November we were 2-0 down at the break and came back to win 4-2."
