Hearts 0-0 Hibernian
Poor from Kevin Nisbet as he's caught offside for no reason.
Drey Wright looks to be coming on for Hibernian. Chris Cadden to make way. A decent shift on his first start of the season.
Hearts 0-0 Hibernian
What a goal that would have been from Kevin Nisbet.
A flick on finds him in the box, and he waits for it to drop over his shoulder and he smashes it on the volley.
It goes wide, though. Hibs have stirred.
Hearts 0-0 Hibernian
A throwback, a note being passed on by Barrie McKay to John Souttar.
What do we think it says?
Hearts 0-0 Hibernian
Craig Gordon makes a brilliant save. What else is new?
Kevin Nisbet makes a fantastic run and gets onto a pass, he gets to the by-line and pulls the ball back for Kyle Magennis.
Gordon claws the Hibs midfielder's shot wide. He was at full stretch. Terrific save.
Hearts 0-0 Hibernian
Alex Gogic smashes the ball just past a post!
A very decent effort from the Hibs midfielder. The best chance they've had for a while.

Quote MessageHearts just look like a better balanced side than I've seen for a long time. Wonderful ball in from Barrie McKay, Josh Ginnelly should do better
Hearts 0-0 Hibernian
Barrie McKay makes an instant impact as he picks out Josh Ginnelly at the back post, but the winger's header is pushed clear by the impressive Matt Macey.
He's been the busier of the two goalkeepers in this half.
Hearts 0-0 Hibernian
Barrie McKay is on for his Hearts debut. The former Rangers man could be the one to unlock the door. Ben Woodburn makes way.
Quite the barnet he's sporting, too.
Hearts 0-0 Hibernian
Taylor Moore comes on for Michael Smith as Hearts make a change.
Hibs defender Ryan Porteous was down for a bit receiving treatment but seems fine to continue.
Hearts 0-0 Hibernian
You feel Hibs have to try to change things up here. It's all Hearts just now.
Can the home side find the breakthrough?
Whenever I say one side is on top, the other tends to fashion a great chance...

Quote MessageThis is a proper slug-fest down the Gorgie Road
Hearts 0-0 Hibernian
Those were Gary Mackay-Steven's last chances to score this afternoon, as he's replaced by Josh Ginnelly. The former Preston man has the ability to make a difference.
But will he?

Quote MessageThat is an absolutely tremendous save from Matt Macey but great play from Hearts in the build-up
Hearts 0-0 Hibernian
A beauty of a save from Hibs keeper Matt Macey!
An inch-perfect pass finds Gary Mackay-Steven one-on-one with the goalkeeper. He shapes for the corner and Macey dives brilliantly to deny him.
The American then stops the same man again moments later. Top class.
Hearts 0-0 Hibernian
A shot on target!
A very loose pass at the back from Hearts defender John Souttar allows Kyle Magennis to pounce. He drives at Alex Cochrane, cuts inside but his shot is fairly tame and Craig Gordon dives on it.
Hearts 0-0 Hibernian
Another free-kick goes to waste. Hearts still got the better of the midfield battle for me.
Hearts 0-0 Hibernian
Joe Newell is booked for hauling back Gary Mackay-Steven! A good chance for Hearts here. A free kick about 35 yards out in a central area.

Quote MessageThe two teams are just sparring with each other. If it's the same game as the first half, we're in for a cracking second half
Hearts 0-0 Hibernian
Hibs break and Joe Newell's fantastic pass find Martin Boyle, and the forward runs at John Souttar before hitting one from distance, which hits off Craig Halkett and goes out for a corner.
Nothing comes from the set-piece other than a Hearts counter!
Peter Haring delivers for Liam Boyce on the stretch but Hibs clear.
