Hearts, Recent FormHearts head into this match with some confidence in the knowledge that they recorded a solid 1-0 away win against Ross County in their last league encounter. They achieved 63% possession in that match and had 17 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Ross County's tally of 9 efforts at goal, 1 of which were on target.
Manager Steven Naismith will be pleased with his team's recent defensive record, having conceded just 3 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have concerns that his team are not scoring many goals, and therefore dropping points. Although failing to score in 4 of their last 6 games, they may have turned a corner having won their last 1, but playing at home, they have only kept 2 clean sheets in their last 6 games.
They're experiencing a disappointing spell of form, having lost 3 of their last 6 games and picking up only 2 wins.
Having scored 3 goals in his last 6 league games for Hearts, Yutaro Oda will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
Hibernian, Recent FormHibernian were forced to settle for a share of the points in their last league match, which wound up a 0-0 draw against Dundee. Their share of possession in that meeting was 63%, while racking up 23 shots along the way, 9 of which were on target. Dundee had 11 shots on goal with 2 on target.
It's fair to say that manager Nick Montgomery will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 7 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games.
Whilst they have only lost 1 of their last 6 away games there will be concern over the amount of points dropped with 4 draws from those games.
In the last match between these two, goals were scored on both sides, with the game ending in a 1-1 draw.
Playing away from home, Hibs have conceded a goal in 3 of their last 3 league games against Hearts.
In the league, Hearts have been unbeaten in their last 4 times they have welcomed Hibs to Tynecastle Park.
With 2 goals notched up from the last 3 league meetings against Hearts at their home ground Tynecastle Park, Hibs man Martin Boyle will be looking for more of the same in this one.
Hearts manager Steven Naismith has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Nathaniel Atkinson (Ankle), Craig Gordon (Broken leg), Craig Halkett (Knee), Andy Halliday (Knock), Barrie McKay (Knee), Yutaro Oda (Knock) and Kyosuke Tagawa (Knock) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Nick Montgomery has a number of injury concerns in his Hibs squad to contend with: Chris Cadden (Achilles tendon), Jake Doyle-Hayes (Ankle), Harry McKirdy (Heart problems) and Joe Wollacott (Thigh)
