How to watch Hibs v Hearts? TV, live stream and kick off details in high stakes Edinburgh Derby clash

Hibs and Hearts do battle for the first time this season this weekend, and one look at the league table tells you that the stakes could not be any higher.

The two Edinburgh clubs currently occupy the bottom two positions in the Premiership ahead of the first capital derby of the campaign, with the Jambos superior goal difference keeping them of the basement spot. David Gray's Hibees have been left bruised by dramatic defeats to Dundee United and Motherwell but will hope that the backing from an expectant Easter Road crowd on Sunday can help them finally kick their season into gear.

Visitors Hearts come into the game off the back of consecutive wins in all competitions, with new Tynecastle boss Neil Critchley following up the 4-0 win against St Mirren in his first game in the dugout last Saturday with a 2-0 victory against Cypriot side Omonoia in the Conference League.

Leith side Hibs have came out on top in just one of the last five derby clashes on home soil, with Hearts winning 149 of their previous 338 meetings compared to their rivals 87. Record Sport has all the key details ahead of what promises to be a pivotal encounter this weekend for both halves of the Edinburgh divide.

The match takes place on Sunday, October 27, with a 12pm kick-off time at Easter Road.
