Hibs have a corner, it's flighted into the box but Hearts captain Christophe Berra tumbles in the box. Referee John Beaton awards the visitors a free-kick.

It's frenetic, it's loud, it's perhaps lacking in quality but you can't take your eyes off this derby.

Hearts look to beat the offside trap with a long ball for Ryotaro Meshino but Hibs keeper Chris Maxwell gallops out to collect.

Hibs fans' pre-match display appeared to send a message to their under-performing players.

A banner read: "Where is the player that would not dare to fight for Hibernian?"

Stevie Mallan's effort is blocked by Glenn Whelan as Hibs suddenly look menacing in the final third. It's a corner for Hibs but Hearts clear.

Much better from the hosts.

Paul Heckingbottom's side have yet to get going, Hibs struggling to establish any rhythm in their passing in the opening exchanges.

The visitors' first foray into Hibs territory is brought to a shuddering halt as Uche Ikpeazu is flagged offside.

Easter Road is crackling with derby excitement. Goals please, and plenty of them...

And we're under way at Easter Road! Who will have Edinburgh derby bragging rights after this one?

A minute's applause inside Easter Road, in memory of the late former Rangers midfielder Fernando Ricksen.

Hibernian manager Paul Heckingbottom has explained why he has swapped his goalkeepers ahead of the derby:

Speaking to BBC Scotland, he said; "I feel that Ofir [Marciano] has not been at the level he was last season in terms of the goals we've conceded. So he understands that. I've been clear on that. And we'll be working to make sure he's ready if he gets back in the team. We've gone from League Cup clean sheets to all of a sudden conceding goals. A lot of that has been down to individual errors."

Celtic remain three points clear at the top of the Premiership after coming from behind to beat Kilmarnock. Eamonn Brophy fired the visitors in front but a double from Odsonne Edouard and a close-range finish from Ryan Christie ensured victory.

Chris Maxwell starts in goal for Hibs. The Welshman, on loan from Preston, made three appearances in the League Cup group stage but this is his Premiership bow.

Apart from that, manager Paul Heckingbottom sticks with the same outfield 10 that lost 2-0 to Kilmarnock.

Craig Levein also gives the goalkeeper gloves to someone else, with Joel Pereira replacing Colin Doyle.

But the Hearts boss is more ruthless with the rest of the side. Jamie Brandon is not in the squad while Andrew Irving and Steven Maclean drop to the bench.

In come Michael Smith, Loic Damour and Ryotaro Meshino.

Celtic keeper Fraser Forster saves Alan Power's spot kick. Referee Greg Aitken had pointed to the spot following Scott Brown's challenge on Osman Sow.

Neil Lennon is then spoken to by the referee for his protests over the penalty decision.

An enforced change for Celtic: central defender Christopher Jullien is withdrawn, suffering from a knock, and is replaced by Tom Rogic.
