Hearts will look to maintain their lead at the top of the Scottish Premiership as they visit relegation-threatened Kilmarnock at Rugby Park on Saturday (kick-off: 8pm).
The Jambos are currently five points clear at the top of the league, having beaten Aberdeen 1-0 last time out, and will look to extend - or at least keep - that lead over second-placed Celtic, who host Motherwell earlier in the day.
Derek McInnes’ side have been besieged by injuries recently, and the Tynecastle manager isn’t expecting any returnees for the weekend clash. However, he has been handed a boost by the news that four of his key men could be back sooner rather than later.
Their hosts, Kilmarnock, are desperate for a win themselves, though, with a 5-1 thrashing from Falkirk in their most recent outing, leaving them deep in the relegation mire in 11th, and three points from safety.
