Craig Levein says Hearts have the BEST squad out of the teams challenging for third spot and says he expects a 'really strong' finish from the capital club.
The Jambos finished best of the rest behind Celtic and Rangers last term and with that secured a crack at European group stage football. Following their elimination from the Europa League play-off round they played six matches in the Europa Conference League, picking up two wins over RFS to finish third in the section. It's been a hectic Thursday/Sunday schedule for the depleted Gorgie side with injuries really hitting them hard.
They rounded off the first half of the season with a last-gasp home draw with Livingston to put them fifth in the Premiership going into the break. They only sit four points behind Aberdeen in third and are right in the mix as they aim for back-to-back third spots.
