Dundee vs Hibernian

Hibernian left Dens Park with all three points after a 1-2 win over Dundee on Sunday, 30 August 2026, in a Scottish Premiership clash that swung the visitors' way early and never really swung back. They went in ahead at the break, having found the breakthrough before half-time, and that cushion looked to be enough until Dundee dragged themselves level in the second half and gave the home crowd something to shout about. It didn't last. Hibernian regrouped and restored their lead soon after, and this time there was no way back for the hosts. For Dundee, it's a frustrating afternoon to reflect on, having done the hard part in fighting back only to concede again almost straight away. Hibernian, on the other hand, showed the sort of resilience that will please their travelling support, holding on for a result that keeps them ticking along nicely in the early weeks of the season. Dundee will need to tighten up defensively if they're not to keep coughing up points at home.

Dundee 1-2 Hibernian was the final score at Dens Park, in a game where Hibernian did enough across the ninety minutes to deserve the three points. It was not always comfortable for Hibernian, and Dundee pushed for a way back into the game, but the result stood. Games like this can carry real weight later in the season, so this is a scoreline worth remembering. Below is a closer look at how the match broke down, statistically.
