Hearts team v Greenock Morton predicted with Aaron McEneff in line for a first start

There could be one or two changes to the Hearts team that faces Greenock Morton on Saturday.

Last Friday night's outing against Queen of the South resulted in a first Championship draw of the season following a poor performance, and the expectation will be that Robbie Neilson's team returns to form at Tynecastle.

Striker Armand Ganduillet sat out with a tight hamstring but is expected to be available for this weekend.

Aaron McEneff is pushing for a start after impressing in a couple of appearances off the bench so far.

Steven Naismith only got the last few minutes at Palmerston but provided the important touch before Liam Boyce was wiped out for Hearts' stoppage time penalty.

The skipper is likely to return now that the Jambos are back on grass.

Aidy White will be absent again but is expected back in training early next week.

John Souttar returned to training with the rest of the squad this week, but fans still shouldn't expect to see him back in action until next season.

Predicted Hearts XI: Gordon, Smith, Halkett, Popescu, Kingsley, Irving, McEneff, Kastaneer, Naismith, Walker, Boyce.
