Robbie Neilson insists Hearts won't be taking their eye off battles on the home front despite their Europa League future hanging in the balance.

The Tynecastle boss is adamant next Thursday's play-off, second-leg against FC Zurich doesn't take priority ahead of a visit to Celtic.

That 2-1 first-leg loss to the Swiss champions on Thursday night has now been parked as Neilson readies his side for the challenge at Parkhead.

He said: "It’s a massive game, it’s a cliché but it’s the bread and butter. The league form last year got us into Europe and we need to do that again so we go to Parkhead and we need to be ready. "We might make a couple of changes but not massive because we’ll try and win that game.
