The Hibs Develpoment Squad kick off their competitive campaign tonight Tuesday 30 July when they take on Albion Rovers in the SPFL Trust Trophy.
The match kicks off at 7.45pm on Tuesday 30 July at Ainslie Park.
Tickets for the match are on sale, with adult tickets costing £10 and concessions costing £5.
Tickets are available to buy at the gate at Ainslie Park (card payment only).
Guillaume Beuzelin’s side reached the Third Round of the SPFL Trust Trophy last season with victories over Formartine United and Brechin City in the opening two rounds, before losing to eventual finalists, The New Saints.
Albion Rovers are managed by former Hearts striker Sandy Clark, and compete in the Lowland League.
They finished 8th last season.
If Hibs youngsters progress to the second round of the competition, then they will face the winners of Cowdenbeath or Kilmarnock B at home.
