Robbie Neilson has named his Hearts team for today’s crucial Premiership match against Rangers.
The Jambos have the chance to leapfrog their rivals into second place if they can secure a resounding win at Tynecastle. Hearts remain unbeaten at home in the league this season and a 3-0 win today would see them overtake the Ibrox club, and sitting just two points behind leaders Celtic.
Hearts boss Neilson has opted for a strong line up, with a front three of Shankland, Forrest and McKay spearheading the attack. Craig Gordon will look to continue his sensational form after his Scotland heroics midweek. The stopper will start alongside Stephen Kingsley who came off the bench for Steve Clarke’s men in the historic Nations League draw against Ukraine on Wednesday. Shankland is set to lead the line, with Andy Halliday dropped to the bench. Also on the bench is new signing Robert Snodgrass with Craig Halkett not risked after recent injury problems.
