Team News
Dundee FC
Hearts
- Dundee manager Tony Docherty made just one change from the Dee's crazy 3-3 draw against Celtic, before a 1-0 win in the derby against Dundee United at Dens Park in the Scottish Cup fourth round as Dundee went without a league fixture last weekend.
- Trevor Carson remained in goal behind Ryan Astley, Clark Robertson and Aaron Donnelly in the Dee back three. Ethan Ingram started at right wing-back, with Fin Roberston continuing at left wing-back.
- Mo Sylla and Cesar Garza were joined by Lyall Cameron, as Josh Mulligan hadn't recovered from the flu, in the middle of the park. Derby day hero Simon Murray partnered Oluwaseun Adewumi in Dundee's attack.
- Hearts boss Neil Critchley named two changes after the Jambos cruised past Highland League outfit Brechin City 4-1 in the Scottish Cup at Glebe Park, before a 3-2 victory over Kilmarnock at Tynecastle in the league last weekend.
- Craig Gordon remained in goal behind Adam Forrester, Craig Halkett, who should be replaced due to injury, Jamie McCart and James Penrice. Beni Baningime and Cammy Devlin continued as the midfield duo chosen to sit in front of the defence.
- Blair Spittal re-took his spot on the left-hand side of midfield, with Jorge Grant chosen on the right, at Yan Dhanda's expense. Kenneth Vargas dropped onto the bench for James Wilson to partner Elton Kabangu in attack.
