Recent respective form guides
Hibernian's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While The Hibees have scored 6, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.
Hearts's away form is none too clever either, accumulating just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. Jambo's have conceded 9 goals in these games, and only hit 3 in reply.
Hibernian lie just outside the playoff positions in the Clydesdale Bank Scottish Premier, picking up 50 points from their 35 games so far. Hearts's 44 points from 35 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 6th position.
