    It is a big day for Bobby Burns.

    The Northern Irishman, so often a winger or forward, is back from his loan with Livingston and is thrown in at left-back.

    Just looking at the officials, Willie Collum is very experienced. Willie will take the conditions into account and he won't be too robust the way he handle's the match in the first 20 minutes, he'll let them get on and keep a lid on it.

  4. Sanitary rules?published at 12:24 British Summer Time 6 April 2019

    Heart of Midlothian v Hibernian (12:30)

    Hearts manager Craig Levein said earlier this week he fears the plethora of disciplinary notices being issued by Scottish FA compliance officer Clare Whyte will "sanitise" the sport.

    It wasn't just Sunday's Old Firm derby that led to suspensions and hearings being pumped out of the Hampden offices this week.

    Levein's club and Aberdeen have been taken to task for a confrontation that led to four players being booked last weekend.

    However, you would imagine that nothing will take away from the competitive edge on display at Tynecastle in today's derby.

    Will the curse of the manager of the month award strike Paul Heckingbottom?

    Hibs have not lost in the league since the Englishman succeeded Neil Lennon as head coach in February - their only defeat being in the Scottish Cup against Celtic at the beginning of March.

    His side are unbeaten in four games since, leading to him being receiving a Ladbrokes award.

    So often that coincides with an untimely defeat.

    Heart of Midlothian v Hibernian (12:30)

    Hearts are unbeaten against Hibs in their last three meetings - and their last nine at home to their city rivals.

    Hibs' last win at Tynecastle came in May 2013!

    Games between the Edinburgh rivals this season have been typically tight, with a 0-0 draw at Tynecastle in October being followed by a 1-0 win for Hearts at Easter Road in December.

    Hibs have yet to lose in the Premiership under Paul Heckingbottom, winning five and drawing two, while Craig Levein has never lost in 15 games against Hibs as Hearts manager.

    But 10 of those have been draws, so a 0-0 stalemate sounds like a good bet!

  8. It'll be frantic - Leveinpublished at 12:18 British Summer Time 6 April 2019

    Heart of Midlothian v Hibernian (12:30)

    Hearts manager Craig Levein on Sportsound: "It is a good day, there's a bit of rain and the pitch will be quite slick.

    "It'll be frantic for the opening 94 minutes then I'm hoping it'll calm down a little bit after that.

    "Michael Smith is a really important player for us. We're better with him back in the team. There's always a risk when somebody comes back from injury.

    "Bobby Burns was at Livingston in the first half of the season. I'm sure he'll be nervous, it's a big day for him. He's a great kid."

  12. Much-changed Hearts, McGregor back for Hibspublished at 12:12 British Summer Time 6 April 2019

    Heart of Midlothian v Hibernian (12:30)

    Hearts make five changes after Wednesday's 3-0 defeat at Rangers.

    Michael Smith, Bobby Burns, Olly Lee, Jake Mulraney and Uche Ikpeazu return to the starting line-up.

    Conor Shaughnessy, Oliver Bozanic and Craig Wighton drop to the bench and Marcus Godinho and Jamie Brandon miss out.

    Ikpeazu is back following a head injury, while Smith returns from a thigh problem.

    Just the one alteration for Hibs after they drew 0-0 with Kilmarnock in midweek.

    Darren McGregor returns to the defence, allowing Mark Milligan to move up into midfield and Vykintas Slivka drops to the bench.

    Hibs have already secured that final place in the top six, so there's nothing to play for in that respect today.

    The post-split fixtures are already published, with Rangers, Kilmarnock, Aberdeen, Hearts and Hibs battling for the European places behind champions-elect Celtic.

    Meanwhile, Hamilton Academical, Dundee and St Mirren battle it out to avoid relegation.
