It's a Monday night blockbuster in the capital as Hearts and Aberdeen go head to head.
The country may well be getting battered by Storm Floris but it is GAME ON in Gorgie as the opening weekend comes to a close.
Derek McInnes has adjusted to life in the Tynecastle dugout and sailed through the Premier Sports Cup group stage with a 100 per cent record while Jimmy Thelin's men return to competitive action for the first time tonight.
They avoided the opening part of the competition due to European involvement with the Dons discovering that it is FCSB or Drita that stand between them and Europa League football. Defeat and it is Conference League once again for the Reds.
But the focus is on the here and now for both teams as they look to get off to a flier in the new league campaign.

Hearts gave fans a pre-Premiership return boost with another new signing.
Tomas Bent Magnusson has arrived from Valur and put pen to paper on a three-year deal.
The centre-midfielder is one Derek McInnes hopes will bring a real presence to his side.
I’m pleased we’ve been able to bring Tomas in ahead of tonight’s game.

I’m looking forward to working with him in the weeks and months ahead.
