Hearts vs Rangers: Scottish Premiership preview
It's well and truly crunch time for Hearts. Having led the Scottish Premiership for most of the season, they have just four games remaining in their bid to win the club's first top-flight title since 1960.
Derek McInnes' side came through the first major test of the run-in with a 2-1 fightback win at Edinburgh rivals Hibernian last weekend, but having barely had time to catch their breath, they now face another huge clash.
Victory over Rangers at Tynecastle would keep Hearts top of the table and, crucially, all but knock their opponents out of the title race, as they would be seven points clear with just three games to go.
It promises to be a fantastic atmosphere in the capital as McInnes' men look to move one step closer to becoming the first Scottish Premiership winner not called Rangers or Celtic since Sir Alex Ferguson led Aberdeen to glory in 1985.

Rangers' own title hopes suffered a setback last weekend as they lost 3-2 at home to Motherwell, which allowed arch-rivals Celtic to move back above the Ibrox club.
Manager Danny Rohl has salvaged some hope from their 2025/26 campaign after replacing Russell Martin in October, but his side will surely need to be faultless in these final four games if they are to overhaul the two sides above them.
Rangers have the slight psychological advantage of beating Hearts when they last met in February, as they twice came from behind to win 4-2, and a repeat would throw the title race wide open.
FourFourTwo's prediction
Hearts 1-1 Rangers
The stakes are high so expect this to be a cagey encounter - FourFourTwo predicts the visitors to take a point that just about keeps them in the title race.
