Motherwell hope Mark O’Hara can shake off a minor niggle ahead of the Scottish Cup quarter-final tie against Hibernian.

The midfielder sat out training in midweek but will bid to get himself fit for the Fir Park clash.

Left-back Nathan McGinley remains on the sidelines, while Barry Maguire is out for the season after undergoing surgery on his quad.

Hibernian striker Kevin Nisbet will be ruled out for seven to nine months following knee surgery.

The Leith side were without a 10 first-team players for Saturday’s goalless draw with St Johnstone but Chris Mueller is back in training and could get some game time at Fir Park.

Joe Newell and Paul Hanlon have just returned to training and the trip to Lanarkshire comes too soon.
