  1. Derby warming up nicelypublished at 15 mins

    Hibs 0-0 Hearts

    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.

  2. Hibs 0-0 Heartspublished at 13 mins

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

    Both of the teams haven’t been doing too well in the league so they’re probably nervous and want to get a foothold in the game. Hearts are trying to play it forward as early as possible, Hibs trying to get it wide to Horgan as soon a possible but it’s just not happening for them yet

    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.

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

  11. 'Marciano has not been at the level he was last season'published at 14:58

    Hibernian v-v Hearts (15:00)

    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."

  12. FULL-TIME Celtic 3-1 Kilmarnockpublished at 14:52

    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.

  13. Both sides change goalkeeper for derbypublished at 14:49

    Hibernian v Hearts (15:00)

    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.

    James Forrest has been very, very good. He's moved over to his natural right-hand side now but that certainly doesn't stop him. In fact it may make him stronger.

    James Forrest's deflected strike comes back off the bar - the winger has done everything but score this afternoon.

    The referee was right up alongside the play and has obviously decided Scott Brown didn't get any of the ball when he went to ground. I thought he got a decent tackle in there and enough of the ball.

  17. MISSED PENALTYpublished at 86 mins

    Celtic 3-1 Kilmarnock

    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.

    There's no pressure on Callum McGregor at all in the middle of the pitch. Kilmarnock have to get tighter, they need to get in his face. They're almost just standing off Celtic in the hope they'll make a bad pass.
