With yet another couple of new international-class players at their disposal, Hearts are quite rightly firm favorites. Jankauskis, Scakel, Pospisil, Bednar and Brellier al are looking to make their competitive home debut.
Fresh from the 4-2 stroll at Rugby Park last week, Hearts go into this game as joint leaders of the SPL, albeit after just the one game!
So a fresh new pitch, 17,000 fans making a helluva noise, this Sunday looks to be an occasion to remember, if you listen to our esteemed CEO, Phil Anderton. Balloons and fireworks in a mass American-style opener to the new term here at Tynecastle.
Exciting times ahead? TOO BLOODY RIGHT!!
