Hearts’ Lawrence Shankland’s heads towards goal

Table toppers Hearts can go five clear at the summit – ahead of Celtic’s game on Sunday – if they win the Edinburgh derby,.

Derek McInnes and his troops are unbeaten in the opening six league games with five wins and a draw.

That record has the Jambos sitting two points clear of Brendan Rodgers’ champions at this early stage and should they emerge victorious under the lights at Tynecastle against city rivals Hibs, they’d go into the international break at top of the pile.

David Gray and his men make the short trip across the capital also unbeaten but they’ve drawn five of their six games so far.

They know a win in the backyard of the Jambos would give them a major boost going into the October international break – but defeat and they’d find themselves 11 points back on the men from Gorgie – with eight points already separating them ahead of kick-off.

It promises to be a derby cracker and Record Sport Online has all the information you need ahead of the showdown.
