The Scottish Cup, 4th Round
Live coverage of Heart of Midlothian v Celtic in the William Hill Scottish Cup fourth round. Kick-off at 3pm. Commentary by Liam McLeod and Billy Dodds.
The Sportscene cameras are in the capital with a full-house expected as both sides begin their Scottish Cup campaigns. Neil Lennon's Celtic are the current holders and will be hoping to clinch a league and cup double for the second year running. Hearts lifted football's oldest national trophy in 2012 with a famous 5-1 victory over their city rivals Hibs.
The match is set against a backdrop of contrasting fortunes for the day's opponents. Celtic sit at the top of the SPFL Premiership, while administration-hit Hearts are at the other end of the table having suffered a 15 point penalty. Could Gary Locke's young side pull off a shock against their much more experienced visitors?
The sides have met once already this season - a league encounter at Tynecastle which the Glasgow side won 3-1. However Hearts triumphed in their most recent Scottish Cup meeting, with a last-minute penalty from Craig Beattie settling the 2012 semi-final at Hampden.
The match is live from Tynecastle Stadium, with kick-off at 3.00pm.
Introduced by Rob Maclean with Michael Stewart and Mark McGhee. Commentary by Liam McLeod and Billy Dodds.
