Hearts vs Hibernian FC preview - Hearts ready to party
Posted Saturday, March 28, 2015 by PA
Hearts will celebrate winning promotion back to the Scottish Premiership after their match with Queen of the South on Saturday.
The Jambos were crowned champions last weekend when city rivals Hibernian failed to beat Rangers at Easter Road.
And boss Robbie Neilson will have a near full squad to choose from ahead of the Gorgie party, with only striker Dale Carrick (hamstring) missing.
Queen of the South will be without the injured Paul Burns (hip) and Iain Russell (knee) as they look to keep hold of fourth spot.
However, Ian McShane is expected to shake off a knock to play.
Manager James Fowler said: "We were disappointing in midweek when we lost 3-0 to Raith Rovers in a game where we made uncharacteristic mistakes.
"Defeating Hearts would be a terrific way to bounce back but it will not be easy as they are worthy champions.
"We have competed well against them all season but it would be great to go that one stage further and take points home with us."
