Dunfermline will be out to break Hearts
Expect Tynecastle clash to be tasty
Betfred Cup Group B
BT Sport 1, 3pm Saturday
Hearts boss Ian Cathro does not dare contemplate anything other than a win against Dunfermline and it could be an entertaining encounter.
The capital side's shock defeat at Ladbrokes League Two team Peterhead has already put the pressure on Cathro, who has been a disaster at Tynecastle since his December appointment.
And Allan Johnston's side will relish having a go at a redeveloped Tynecastle.
The Fifers have netted 11 goals in their two home games with Nicky Clark in fine form, although they drew a blank at East Fife.
Hearts have Kyle Lafferty up front so they should score, but they can't be fancied at heavy odds-on and both teams to score looks a better bet.
Recommendation
Both teams to score
