Scottish Premiership leaders Hearts face another test of their title credentials when they host Rangers on Sunday afternoon.

Derek McInnes’ side have emerged from a sticky patch to claim away wins at both Celtic and Falkirk.

Those results mean Hearts head into the weekend holding a six-point lead at the top of the table.

As for third-placed Rangers, they will be looking to complete a capital double after edging out Hibernian 1-0 at Ibrox on Monday night.

What’s more, the visitors know a victory on Sunday would see them enter the title race conversation.

📈 Hearts v Rangers Form & Stats

Hearts’ title credentials were questioned following a run that saw them win just 1 of their 6 Scottish Premiership matches across November and early December, but they bounced back in style by claiming a statement 2-1 win at Celtic Park a fortnight ago. Derek McInnes’ men followed up on that success by securing a solid, rather than spectacular, 2-0 win away at Falkirk last weekend.

The results mean table-topping Hearts are heading towards the halfway stage of the season having lost just once in this season’s Scottish Premiership.

No team has scored more goals than Hearts (34) in this season’s Scottish Premiership, with the hosts hitting 2+ goals in a league-high 12 of their 17 matches to date.

Hearts have forced an average of 2.36 bookings per 90 from their Scottish Premiership foes this season, with 7 of their last 8 opponents shown a minimum of 2 cards.

Rangers have shown signs of improvement since hiring Danny Rohl as manager at the end of October. In fact, the German has yet to taste defeat in the Scottish Premiership as Rangers manager, having overseen 6 wins and 2 draws to date.

Rangers have kept a clean sheet in 4 of their 6 Scottish Premiership victories under Rohl’s guidance, the most recent of which came against Hibernian at Ibrox on Monday night.

While Rangers have been uninspiring for large chunks of this season, they have lost just 1 of their 16 Scottish Premiership matches thus far. That solitary defeat came against Hearts in this season’s reverse fixture, with the capital club claiming a 2-0 win at Ibrox in September.

Both teams have scored in 5 of Rangers’ 8 Scottish Premiership away matches this season, including a 2-2 draw at Dundee United earlier this month.

📔 Hearts v Rangers Formation & Team News

While Derek McInnes has favoured a 4-4-2 this season, he is expected to stick with the 4-2-3-1 system that has served him well against Celtic and Falkirk in recent weeks.

Hearts will be forced into at least one change, with Harry Milne suspended due to an accumulation of yellow cards, so Stephen Kingsley is likely to deputise.

Beni Baningime and Calem Nieuwenhof are close to returning from injury and could be named in the matchday squad this weekend. However, Eduardo Ageu and Finlay Pollock remain sidelined, though the pair are making progress in their respective comebacks.

Danny Rohl has used a variety of formations since taking charge at Rangers, starting with a 4-1-4-1 system against Hibernian on Monday night before finishing the game with a back three.

Rangers are carrying a fairly lengthy injury list at the moment, with Bailey Rice, Derek Cornelius, John Souttar, Kieran Dowell, Nedim Bajrami, Oliver Antman and Rabbi Matondo all ruled out, while Bojan Miovski is rated as doubtful.
