Hibs v Hearts: TV channel, kick-off time and referee for the Easter Road Edinburgh Derby

All talk of the Scottish Cup semi-final will be put to one side when Hearts and Hibs lock horns in the Ladbrokes Premiership on Tuesday night.

And this game has so much riding on it.

Hearts are in desperate need of the three points as they look to fight their way to safety while Hibs will be keen to continue their push towards the European places.

Both clubs enjoyed Scottish Cup success at the weekend, and have a mouth-watering semi-final clash to look forward to next month – but league business is the priority for now.

Hearts won the last time they visited Easter Road, in September, thanks to a late Aaron Hickey goal, and Hibs came on top 2-0 in the Boxing Day derby at Tynecastle.

When does the game get underway?

The action will kick-off at 7.45pm on Tuesday – so we've got another derby under the lights to look forward to.

The match will be broadcast live on BT Sports, but we'll also be running a live blog with all the build-up, team news, score updates and reaction to the match here on Edinburgh Live.

Both clubs are coming into the match on the back of positive results at the weekend, so we could be in for a cracker.

Who will be in charge?

Kevin Clancy will referee the match with David Roome and Calum Spence the assistants. Bobby Madden will be between the dugouts as fourth official.

You can follow all the latest updates, including team news, build up, score updates and reaction, using our live blog.
