An early goal from Hibs's Brian Kerr earned them a 1-0 win in the Edinburgh derby clash with Hearts in their Scottish Premier League opener Monday.
Kerr headed Hibs in front after only 2 minutes of his debut following a mistake by Christos Karipidis.
The Hearts defender swung wildly at a cross by Steven Fletcher and failed to connect, allowing Kerr to smash a downward header from 6 metres past goalie Steve Banks.
Hibs came close to a 2nd when Moroccan forward Abdessalam Benjelloun latched on to a diagonal ball to the right of the penalty area from compatriot Merouane Zemmama however his shot flashed past the left post in the 54th minute.
Hearts keeper Banks dived to his right to brilliantly push away a 20-metre free kick from David Murphy on 64 minutes as Hibs underlined their superiority.
Champions Celtic opened their campaign at the weekend with a 0-0 draw against Kilmarnock whilst last season's runners up Rangers beat Inverness Caledonian Thistle 3-0.
