Premiership game of the weekend: Aberdeen v Hearts
On Monday, the prospect of travelling to in-form Aberdeen would have been much more daunting for Hearts.
Without a win all season, the Tynecastle side had an awkward midweek Conference League fixture to negotiate first.
But negotiate it they did. Yan Dhanda's added-time goal against Dinamo Minsk in a closed-doors neutral venue in Azerbaijan secured a first win since May and interim boss Liam Fox takes his once again buoyant squad to Pittodrie on Sunday.
Will Hearts be the team to end Aberdeen's 100% start to the season? They will have their work cut out if so.
Dundee gave Jimmy Thelin's side a stern examination at Dens Park last weekend but the Dons came away with a 2-1 win and start this weekend still five points in front of Rangers and only below Celtic on goal difference.
