Hearts prepare to entertain Motherwell at Tynecastle Stadium on Wednesday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Jambo's are clearly on top, having won 72 and lost only 24 of the 128 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Tynecastle Stadium was less than a year ago, in March 2009, the Jambo's carving out a narrow 2-1 victory in a Scottish Premier match.
