History of the Hibernian v Heart of Midlothian fixture
Hibernian prepare to entertain Heart of Midlothian at Easter Road Stadium at lunchtime on Monday, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 56 of the 140 previous games, with the Hibees winning just 42.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Easter Road Stadium was less than a year ago, in April 2011, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2-2 draw in a Scottish Premier match.
