Hibernian v Hearts (16:30)
With Hearts five games away from a possible first title in 66 years, this has to be the biggest Edinburgh derby since the 2012 Scottish Cup final.
This fixture is always fierce, it's usually edgy, it's often ugly.
The tension could be off the scale today!

Youssef Chermiti
Game on.
Youssef Chermiti runs on to a Mohamed Diomande pass and gets away from Paul McGinn before passing into the net.
A 12th goal of the season for the striker and Rangers are right back in it with more than half-an-hour to go.

Rangers look more natural in a 4-3-3 shape.
Youssef Chermiti almost gets in after a mistake by Stephen Welsh, who recovers well.
Moments later, Djeidi Gassama's chipped cross clips the Motherwell crossbar on its way out.
Rangers 0-2 Motherwell
Rangers head coach Danny Rohl cannot have been happy with that first-half performance and has taken action.
On come captain and right-back James Tavernier, midfielder Mohamed Diomande and winger Mikey Moore for the second half.
Jayden Meghoma, Tochi Chukwuani and Bojan Miovski do not re-appear for the second half.
Here we go for the second half at Ibrox.
The Rangers look lost, no ideas. £40m wasted. Motherwell are showing how to do it on a shoestring budget.
Walter
When have Rangers played well for 90 mins? Can’t keep getting away with bit part performances, given a football lesson by Motherwell. The 4-4-2 does not work anymore, far too many spaces in midfield. Barron and Moore must come on .
David
I'm afraid that both Rangers and Hearts just don't have the mentality to win the league. It is increasingly looking more and more likely that Celtic will lift the trophy yet again and it's mindboggling that they can have such an omnishambles of a season and still (potentially) do a double.
Matthew
Hibernian v Hearts (16:30)
Derek McInnes makes four changes, but is undoubtedly dealt a blow by the loss of midfielder Cammy Devlin.
Rumours swirled online that the Aussie had picked up an injury, which now appears to be the case. He's replaced in midfield by Marc Leonard, who returns from suspension.
It looks like Hearts have changed shape, with Michael Steinwender making up a back-three and Jordi Altena playing as a wing-back on the right.
Up top, Pierre Landry Kabore also comes in. Oisin McEntee is out for the season, while Alexandros Kyziridis has been dropped.
Blair Spittal joins the Greek among the subs.

Hibernian v Hearts (16:30)
David Gray makes three changes to his Hibs' line-up, handing Martin Boyle a start up top, as well as the captain's armband.
Nicky Cadden also returns, with Jordan Obita slotting into the back-three alongside Rocky Bushiri, the third and final addition.
Grant Hanley is suspended, with Jack Iredale and Dane Scarlett dropping to the bench.

This display from Rangers is absolutely unacceptable, they are playing like an amateur side.
Alex Wallace
Certain players in the Rangers team are not good but surely the manager has got to take the blame for this shambles.
Boyd
Don't think this Rangers side is a winning team. Just no teeth when they need to fight and too many goals conceded then having to chase the game as usual.
Mark
A comfortable win for the hosts, their fourth on the bounce at home.
Will Ferry is the United hero, scoring two and setting up the other for Ryan Strain.
Dundee remain five points above the play-off place, currently occupied by Kilmarnock.
Image source, SNSA sensational first half from Motherwell and a deserved two-goal lead.
Lukas Fadinger and Emmanuel Longelo with the goals and there could have been more.
Rangers have their work cut out to get anything out of this game and keep their title push intact.

Dave Richards fumbles a free-kick from Yan Dhanda but Dario Naamo bails out the United keeper with a great recovery tackle to prevent a tap-in.

This is a bad, bad day for Dundee.
Rangers 0-2 Motherwell
Youssef Chermiti weaves his way through the Motherwell box and gets away a shot that is blocked.
Rangers recycle and win a corner. Jayden Meghoma's delivery is easily claimed by goalkeeper Calum Ward.
More frustration for the hosts.
Rangers 0-2 Motherwell
Motherwell continue to run riot.
Emmanuel Longelo runs on to a loose ball in the left of the Rangers box and smacks a deflected shot out.
It would have been interesting to see where that effort would have ended up.
Dundee United 3-0 Dundee
Will Ferry has four goals in his last four appearances, having failed to score in his first 76 games for United.
That's Ryan Strain's first goal for the club. Maybe he'll go on a run too.
Image source, SNSRangers 0-2 Motherwell
Emmanuel Longelo crosses into the box and Callum Slatterly stretches out a foot to turn the ball just wide of Rangers' goal. The offside flag went up but, nonetheless, the home crowd are not happy.

Peter Lovenkrands
Former Rangers striker on BBC Sportsound
Rangers look lost out there.
Motherwell are absolutely dominating Rangers right now in possession and Rangers are running around chasing their players to figure out how to shut down their players.
Dundee United 3-0 Dundee
Lots of Dundee fans heading for the exits.
Meanwhile, United are heading for four successive home wins in the top flight for the first time since 2014.
Ryan Strain
Wing-back to wing-back!
WIll Ferry jinks one way, then another, before digging out a fabulous cross for Ryan Strain to nod in.
The home fans are lapping this up.
Will Ferry

The wing-back takes aim from out wide and it whistles past Jon McCracken.

Hibernian have won both of their last two home league games against Hearts; they had won just one of their previous nine home Edinburgh derbies in the Scottish Premiership before this (D4 L4).
After their 1-0 win in February, Hearts are looking to win back-to-back Scottish Premiership meetings with rivals Hibernian for the first time since April 2014; this is the 28th top-flight game between the two sides since then.
Hibernian remain unbeaten in nine home league games (W6 D3), keeping a clean sheet in their last three; Hibs haven’t recorded four successive home shutouts in the top-flight since December 2009 under John Hughes.
Heart of Midlothian are the first non-Old Firm club (Celtic/Rangers) to earn 70+ points in a Scottish Premiership season since Aberdeen in 2017-18 (73), while it’s Hearts’ most in a top-flight campaign since 2005-06 (74).
Hearts are winless in their last four away league games (D1 L3), this after only failing to win four of their first 12 on the road in 2025-26 beforehand (W8 D2 L2).
