There were two late changes to the starting line-ups for Hibernian and Heart of Midlothian ahead of their cinch Premiership match at Easter Road on Saturday.

David Gray made one enforced change to the Hibernian team that started the 2-0 win over Motherwell last weekend, with Rocky Bushiri coming in for the suspended Ryan Porteous.

Neil Critchley also made one change to the Hearts team that drew 0-0 with Kilmarnock last time out, with Josh Ginnelly replacing Barrie McKay.

The Hibees have won their last two matches, against Motherwell and Aberdeen, and will be confident of beating their Edinburgh rivals.

Hearts, meanwhile, have drawn their last two matches, against Kilmarnock and St Mirren, and will be looking to get back to winning ways.

The match is sure to be a close affair, with both teams in good form.

Hibernian are the slight favorites to win the match, but Hearts are always a dangerous opponent.

I predict that the match will be a draw, with both teams scoring.
