Hearts are set to be handed a major Edinburgh derby boost by Zander Clark, according to a report.
The Scotland squad player suffered a hamstring injury against Kilmarnock on April 1 but is back in training with a view to stepping up his return ahead of the capital showdown claim the Scottish Sun. They also note that Josh Ginnelly could also return to training today as he makes a late bid to be ready for Saturday's showdown.
Clark has been the main man between the sticks since skipper Craig Gordon suffered his season-ending double-leg break. He's now hopeful of taking his position on the park at Easter Road this weekend as caretaker boss Steven Naismith bids to return the Gorgie side to winning ways and dent the Hibees' chances of reaching the top six. Both clubs have just one game following the derby with the need for a return to winning ways and a big three points more important than ever.
