Hearts are back in European competition and they've been handed some stellar ties to mark the occasion.
Robbie Neilson 's side will compete in the Europa Conference League with a real fighting chance of making an impact in the tournament. On Friday, they were drawn against Fiorentina, Istanbul Basaksehir and RFS in Group A and fans have been waiting eagerly to see how the fixture list would pan out.
Well, wonder no more, as UEFA released the full line-up early on Saturday morning - and it's worth the wait. Hearts will kick off their campaign at a packed Tynecastle as Istanbul Basaksehir come to Edinburgh. Then it's a first journey abroad to take on group underdogs RFS. Following that comes the fixtures the Hearts faithful have been waiting on - a double header with Serie A giants Fiorentina, with the first of the two huge occasions taking place in Gorgie.
Following their trip to Florence, it's a home clash with RFS before the group concludes away in Turkey. Check out the full fixture list below.
