Preview
Hearts failed to break down Hibs when battling out a 0-0 draw in the Edinburgh derby last weekend, but they should find Ross County far easier to master.
The Jambos have returned to the Scottish Premiership in good form and they are unbeaten in their opening five top-flight matches. That run includes good wins against Celtic, St Mirren and Dundee United, and although they had to settle for a draw against Hibs last time out, there was a lot to like about that performance.
Robbie Neilson's side managed 16 shots on goal and 11 corners at Tynecastle last weekend and they now face a Ross defence who have shipped 11 goals in their opening five games.
Hearts have plenty of firepower and at 3-4 they look good value to take three points at Dingwall.
The Dundee derby takes centre stage on Sunday and it looks worth backing the Dees on their short trip to Tannadice to take on rivals United.
The Terrors shocked Rangers earlier in the season with a 1-0, but that was one of only two SPL goals that they have scored under rookie boss Tam Courts.
Dundee United were outplayed when drawing 0-0 with St Mirren last weekend and prior to that they were crushed 2-0 at home by Hearts.
Dundee are hampered by an injury to Charlie Adam, but the signing of Leigh Griffiths is a major boost and James McPake's side have shown enough to suggest their first top-flight win of the campaign may not be far away.
