Recent respective form guides
Hibs poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While The Hibees have scored 7, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.

Hibs are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 8 points from 10 matches. Hearts lie fifth picking up 14 from their 10 games so far.
