Hearts vs Aberdeen on TV: Channel, live stream and kick-off details for huge Tynecastle showdown

The game of the weekend heads to the capital as Hearts and Aberdeen face off in a HUGE showdown.

Barry Robson's men go into the clash with a five point advantage over Steven Naismith and Co with just three games to go before the whistle is blown in Gorgie. A win for the Reds would leave it impossible for the Jambos to catch them in the race for third spot behind Celtic and Rangers while victory for the men in maroon would cut the gap to just two points with two to play in the race for Europe.

Finishing third is likely to guarantee European group stage football with Celtic heavy favourites to defeat Inverness Caley Thistle in the Scottish Cup Final. The Jambos enjoyed that luxury earlier this season and are determined to taste the experience and bank the millions once again. But Aberdeen have ambitions of their own and are in the box seat to land the big prize. Here's everything you need to know ahead of the weekend.
