Pick your Hearts team to face Hibs in the Edinburgh derby

The personnel may not be drastically different, but the performance against Hibs has to be after Hearts' midweek defeat to Rangers.

The typical derby atmosphere, especially at Tynecastle , should ensure that it is.

Craig Levein will welcome Uche Ikpeazu back after the striker suffered a head knock against Aberdeen last weekend.

Michael Smith is also pushing for a return to action after missing the last six weeks or so with a thigh injury.

Aside from that, Hearts are likely to be relatively unchanged for the third capital clash of the season.
