Hibernian made the trip to Dens Park on Sunday, 30 August 2026 and came away with the points, edging out Dundee 1-2 in a Premiership clash that swung their way before the break. The visitors led at half-time thanks to an opener that gave them control of the game, and while Dundee pushed for a way back in the second half, Hibernian held firm and added a second to settle matters. The home side did pull one back late on, but it wasn't enough to stop Hibernian seeing the game out. For Dundee, it's a result that will sting given how the game was there to be taken once they got a goal back. There's plenty of season left to put things right, but dropping points at home against a direct rival is never ideal. Hibernian, meanwhile, will be delighted with the manner of the win - taking the lead early and showing enough composure to see off a spirited fightback. Three points on the road is a solid return and one that should give their squad plenty of confidence heading into the coming weeks.
