Lawrence Shankland believes Hearts can take confidence from their defeat to Celtic as they bid to turnaround their poor run of results.
The Jambos have suffered heavily with injuries so far this campaign as they continue to juggle domestic matters with Europa Conference League football. Robbie Neilson and Co return to midweek action with RFS making the trip to Tynecastle later this week. A win over the group bottom seeds coupled up with Fiorentina dropping points against Istanbul Basaksehir would take qualification hopes for the next stage to the final game.
In the Premiership, Hearts now trail third placed Aberdeen by five points as the bid to keep in touch with the chasing pack behind Celtic and Rangers ahead of the World Cup. Shankland is adamant the capital club can turn fortunes around and get better results as they look to secure European football once again for next season.
