Hearts resume their focus on the Europa Conference League this week and they’ll face their toughest test yet.
The Jambos have started their European adventure in the best possible way. They have two wins from two and are giving themselves the best chance of qualifying out of the league phase.
Dinamo Minsk and Omonoia were taken care of in fine fashion but Bundesliga outfit Heidenheim will deliver a greater challenge under the lights in Gorgie.
Heidenheim have risen through the German league system over the last decade or so and qualified for the Conference League last season after finishing 8th in the top-flight.
They are currently 12th in the Bundesliga but have also won their opening two Conference League ties – they are behind Hearts in the table only via goal difference.
