Preview

Hearts and Hibs clash in the Edinburgh derby on Sunday and the fact they started the weekend as the SPL's top two sides gives the fixture even more buzz.

Hearts have returned to the top flight in good form but Hibs are fancied to edge the Tynecastle tussle.

Jack Ross's side have been excellent in the early part of the season and they have notched ten league goals in their first four Scottish Premiership matches.

The added firepower could swing things in favour of the Hibees and they look good 11-8 shots.

St Mirren are yet to win in four Scottish Premiership matches, but they have been set some tough tasks and they look up to gaining their first victory at home to Dundee United.

The Saints have lost to Hearts and Celtic, but they have picked up decent draws against Dundee and St Johnstone.

The performance levels of Jim Goodwin's side have been better than their winless status suggests and there doesn't seem to be a huge amount to fear from Dundee United.

The Terrors have scored just two goals this term and managed only six shots on target in their two away league matches at Aberdeen and St Johnstone.

The Saints are boosted by the signing of Matt Millar, who goes straight into the squad, and they look a good bet at 11-8.

Dundee are interesting when they host Livingston, but the absence of Dark Blues captain Charlie Adam through injury tempers enthusiasm.

Livi have managed just eight top-flight shots on target and that lack of threat has to be a major concern for David Martindale.
