Hibs new signing Denni was handed a two-match ban following his sending-off in the champions’ 4-1 victory over Naxxar Lions on Saturday.

Denni, who joined Hibernians in the last week of the August transfer window, marred his debut after being given a straight red card by referee Malcolm Spiteri for elbowing Naxxar midfielder Mandinho 20 minutes from time.

The Brazilian, who had earlier scored Hibs’ second goal, will miss the games against his former clubs, Tarxien Rainbows and Valletta.
