Hearts FC, currently leading the Scottish Premiership, will face their Edinburgh rivals Hibernian in a critical derby match on Sunday. After a solid 3-1 home victory against Motherwell, Hearts are looking to improve their away form, having only managed one point from their last four league matches on the road. This includes three consecutive losses against Kilmarnock, Rangers, and St Mirren, as well as a defeat in December's derby at Easter Road. Despite starting the season with four straight away wins, Hearts have struggled significantly since, winning only four out of their last twelve away games. With three of their five post-split fixtures away from Tynecastle, including upcoming matches against Motherwell and Celtic, this derby presents an opportunity for Hearts to regain momentum and solidify their title challenge.
