What channel is Hearts v Celtic on? Match info, kick-off time, TV details, team news

It is another bumper midweek of cinch Premiership action with one of the biggest games taking place at Tynecastle Park this evening as Hearts host Celtic.

It is the second meeting between the sides in Gorgie this campaign with the first, on the opening weekend of the campaign, producing a captivating affair with the Capital club edging out their Glasgow rivals 2-1 thanks to a late John Souttar goal.

Back then there were still restrictions on crowds with no away fans. Tonight’s encounter will be a close to a sell out with more than 1,000 visiting supporters.

It is a big match for both teams. Hearts are currently comfortable in third. Fourth and fifth face each other at Fir Park as Motherwell host Hibs and Aberdeen lost to St Mirren on Tuesday meaning there is an opportunity to put more distance between Robbie Neilson's men and the chasing pack.

For Celtic, it is about keeping up the pressure on Rangers. Last week they were able to reduce the gap at the top from six to four points. A game at Tynecastle, however, presents a very tricky test.
