Cowdenbeath v Hearts: Who should start for the visitors at Central Park

Hears continute their Betfred Cup group stage campaign in the salubrious surroundings of Central Park this midweek when they face Cowdenbeath.

The Blue Brazil top Group A after the weekend victory over fellow Fifers East Fife, with the Jambos tucked in behind them in second thanks to a draw and subsequent bonus point against Dundee United at Tynecastle last Friday.

Craig Levein has said he'll use these games to try and get as much of his squad as possible match sharp, while of course qualifying from the group.

Jake Mulraney is unlikely to be risked after his hamstring tightened up following last Friday's game.

Conor Washington played 90 minutes despite that not beng the plan, which had to change following Andy Irving's second half red card, so he may make way for Steven MacLean, who returns from suspension.

Ollie Bozanic is likely to step in for Irving as he serves his, while Harry Cochrane is in the manager's thoughts after missing out against United.
