Derek McInnes will have a positive selection headache on Saturday when Heart of Midlothian make the short trip to Easter Road to face Hibs.
The Hearts head coach is set to welcome back Harry Milne from suspension and Craig Halkett from a minor knee issue after the duo missed the win over Rangers.
Then there is Beni Baningime, who returned off the bench in the second half of the 2-1 victory at Tynecastle Park.
The Scottish Premiership league leaders have won the last three games and currently have a six-point lead at the top. They are 16 points ahead of their city rivals.
There is unlikely to be many changes to the 4-3-3 that has been so effective in recent weeks, but a strong squad is a good problem for McInnes to have.
"I haven't thought about that yet. Obviously, we'll see how we get through training, we've still got a couple of days of training, two or three days of training left to see how we go," he said.
"Sunday was good in the sense that we came through it without a couple of key players. Harry and Craig, who have been brilliant performers for us. You then get Beni on the pitch, and you see how the fans reacted to him, and that's no different to his team-mates and ourselves. It's just getting bodies back.
"We know that it's very rare that you get everybody fit, in particular all your key players, but certainly working week to week now as we are this month, because we took the Falkirk game [forward], we don't have the game on the 30th. It means we go from Hibs to Livingston hopefully with another free weeks' work to build those minutes up for a lot of boys who have been out like Beni."
McInnes revealed that Claudio Braga has missed training following the win over Rangers due to a swollen ankle. The Portuguese, however, is expected to train on Christmas Eve alongside Halkett ahead of the Hibs fixture.
"Everybody's from the weekend's fine, Braga took a couple of sore ones on his ankle, and his ankle's a bit swollen. So his second day of recovery really was in-house today. He didn't do so much on his feet, so he was more gym based on his recovery. Claudio thinks he'll train tomorrow, so I don't think it's anything that he's overly concerned about for the weekend," McInnes said.
"Craig Halkett ticked all the boxes with the physio today. His knee's settled down and he'll train tomorrow fully with the squad.
"And Harry Milne's back obviously from his suspension which just leaves the three lads. Calem Niuewenhof is still feeling the effects of his work, so he's still a bit away yet, maybe another few days before he comes back to us.
"Finlay [Pollock], working away. And Ageu’s back, he was on the grass this morning doing more of the physio, just doing his coverage of a jog and his specific work. And we're hoping, all three really, hoping all three can up their work and maybe be back at some point in January or whatever."

Ageu has been back in Portugal for the first part of his rehab on his hamstring injury. Hearts remained in constant dialogue with the player and medical team in Portugal.
McInnes revealed the player came "bouncing back" into training. The club's record-breaking signing has taken a step forward in his recovery and it is hoped that he will have a part to play in the second half of the season.
"I think he enjoyed being back. Obviously, we spoke about the benefits of that, we've been liaising with Ageu and the medical team in Portugal, so we were happy it was always him to come back now," McInnes said.
"He feels that he's took a good step forward, certainly mentally. I think it's done what we hoped it would do.
"He's keen to get moving and we just need to temper that enthusiasm and eagerness to get back because we've got to go slowly but surely, we've got to make sure that we're not putting too much load through him too soon. Hopefully, we can, by doing that and getting the necessary steps right, we can have him available before too long to be honest."
