Hearts and Kilmarnock are in desperate need of Premiership points this evening as the two sides do battle at Tynecastle.
The Jambos sit second bottom in the league with just one win from a staggering 10 matches, an unthinkable prospect after what they achieved last season.
But new boss Neil Critchley has given the place a lift and after three games, he remains unbeaten as the Hearts manager.
Convincing victories against St Mirren and Omonoia got the fans onside after initial scepticism regarding the appointment before a point was earned at Easter Road in the derby on Sunday.
Meanwhile, Kilmarnock were unbeaten in seven games before losing to Ross County at the weekend with ill-discipline a massive concern for the Rugby Park outfit.
Killie have a good record at Tynecastle, however, so they’ll be hoping to get another victory over the Jambos and get back to winning ways.
Not The Old Firm have detailed the Hearts and Kilmarnock starting XIs for tonight’s clash below.
