WATCH: Crowd of Hibs fans march to Tynecastle ahead of Edinburgh derby showdown

Hibs fans were in fine voice as they marched to Tynecastle ahead of the first Edinburgh derby of the season.

Videos show mass ranks of the Easter Road faithful making their way to the home of their city rivals for the lunchtime kick off.

The Gorgie side host their Leith rivals in the inaugural Capital clash of the campaign this afternoon - the first league meeting between the sides in over a year.

One local caught hundreds of Hibees in good spirits on their way up Corstorphine Road as they headed to join thousands of others in the Roseburn stand.

Fans can be heard singing while a few minor pyrotechnics are let off with green smoke circling a section of supporters.

The top of the table clash could see the winner top the cinch Premiership after both sides made encouraging starts to the campaign.

Both had ten points at kick off after picking up three wins and a draw each from their opening four games.

It was parity in the monthly awards too as Hearts boss Robbie Neilson scooped the prize for August’s best manager and Hibs star Martin Boyle’s four-goal haul earned him player of the month.

The match kicked off at 12pm.
