Hearts and Aberdeen face off under the lights in a huge midweek Premiership showdown.
Robbie Neilson and Co welcome Jim Goodwin's men to the capital with the battle to finish third behind Celtic and Rangers coming right into focus here. The Jambos currently hold a four point advantage over fourth placed Livingston and are two further points ahead of the Dons in the best of the rest position ahead of tonight's encounter.
Victory for the Jambos would increase their lead over Aberdeen to a massive nine points with the same number of games played while they could potentially move further ahead of Livingston depending on the outcome of their match against Dundee United. The capital club have been handed a major boost off the park ahead of this one with star man Kye Rowles putting pen to paper on a five-year deal. The visitors arrive in Gorgie off the back of a extra-time League Cup semi-final defeat to Rangers on Sunday. Here's everything you need to know ahead of the match.
