Tom Hateley hopes the Friday night clash with Hibs under the floodlights at Fir Park will yield yet another entertaining affair.
Motherwell versus Hibs at Fir Park has forged something of a reputation for being laced with goals; indeed, the last four matches between the sides in North Lanarkshire have produced an astonishing 23 goals.
And although the former Reading player is keen to put on a show for the paying punters, he does admit that for the sake of his nerves, a somewhat low key victory would do just the same.
“Fingers crossed it will be an exciting game; it has been the last few times the teams have met with lots of chances and goals,” he said.
“Those games have probably been exciting for the fans but when you are on the pitch, I suppose you would rather be keeping a clean sheet. A 1-0 win would do me that is for sure.
“But hopefully we will have a big crowd in, we’ll entertain them with good football and we’ll come away with the result which we need.”
