As it stands, Hibs are all but ending Falkirk's hopes of catching them in fifth spot in the race for European football.
Meanwhile, Aberdeen are on their way to narrowing the gap between themselves and seventh-placed Dundee United to three points.
Dundee would be all but safe from relegation should they retain their lead over Livingston, but perhaps more importantly, Kilmarnock will open up a four-point gap between themselves and hosts St Mirren in the battle to avoid that relegation play-off spot.

David Gray said this was his Hibs side's biggest game of the season and he will be thrilled at how they have risen to the occasion.
An early double from Josh Campbell and a fine strike from Jordan Obita give them a commanding lead at the interval - and a five-point cushion above Falkirk if it stays this way.
The hosts are yet to register a shot on target and, barring a drastic second-half turnaround, it will be a third home loss in their last four outings.

BBC Sport Scotland at the SMISAIt's taken them 40 minutes to really turn up for this one, but finally the home side are giving their supporters something to get excited about.
Most of the play in the last five minutes has been in Kilmarnock's half, with visiting goalkeeper Max Stryjek making a really good save from Mark O'Hara to keep his side ahead.
Signs of life, finally, from the Buddies. Not before time.

Mark O'Hara certainly can up the other end, but his close-range finish is saved by Max Stryjek, who should really have no chance. St Mirren have to score that.

Dundee win to ensure Scottish Premiership place next season
Congreve and substitutes Robertson & Hay on target
Relegated Livingston have penalty saved, Muirhead denied
ByAndy Campbell
BBC Scotland
Dundee made sure of their Scottish Premiership status for next season with a convincing win against relegated Livingston.
Steven Pressley's hosts were already well-placed to avoid the relegation play-off place and now have a sufficient cushion of nine points over second-bottom St Mirren with two games left.
Cameron Congreve was alert after Simon Murray's header was helped on by Joe Westley's foot, the attacker finishing from close range.
And Congreve set up substitute Finlay Robertson on 71 minutes.
Livi - led by interim boss Scott Arfield for the first time - had a chance to reduce the deficit when Ethan Hamilton fouled Lewis Smith in the box.
But Robbie Muirhead's penalty was saved by Kieran O'Hara, who had also denied Dylan Tait in the first half.
Another substitute, Ashley Hay, nodded in Robertson's cross for 3-0 late on.
Cameron Congreve was one of Dundee's main attacking outlets
Analysis: Dundee can start planning as Arfield chooses dugout view
Dundee's mission in recent weeks was clear - keep away from the bottom two.
That was aided by last weekend's victory over St Mirren and the Dark Blues' first back-to-back wins since the festive period have taken them over the line.
Now, Pressley can properly start planning for next season and can also take encouragement from the performance of stand-in goalkeeper O'Hara, who stepped in for Jon McCracken.
Pressley has decisions to make with six of his squad on loan, including the influential Congreve and Yan Dhanda.
Arfield had distanced himself from the Livingston job in the build up to his first game in charge but also suggested three wins from three may make him reconsider.
He chose not to select himself at Dens Park and went with an experienced line-up of players often used by predecessors David Martindale and Marvin Bartley.
Barring a couple of half-chances and the spot-kick, the visitors struggled to create openings in a similar manner to most of their campaign so far.
Arfield is keen to keep playing and his intelligence in attack is one of the ingredients they will need to bounce straight back from the Championship next term.
What the managers said
Dundee manager Steven Pressley: "At times, it's been very difficult this season, especially in the early stages. There was a lot of doubt. There was a lot of difficult moments. There was a lot of soul searching.
"To keep going, to keep fighting away, I couldn't be prouder of the group. There was some bleak times in December and it takes a lot to keep going and this group just kept finding a way, kept taking those small steps forward and eventually came through. We've proved some people wrong."
Livingston interim manager Scott Arfield: "I don't think that game was ever a 3-0 game. Not a chance. In possession, we were excellent at times. We just need to reward ourselves in big moments.
"We had large in-play possession without really, really going after them and then the times that we do, probably symbolic of the full season this season where the pass or the cross or the shot's just not accurate enough to cause real, real problems."
What's next for these clubs?
Dundee are away to Kilmarnock on Tuesday (19:45 BST), when Livingston play their penultimate Premiership fixture before relegation away to Dundee United.
