With the prospect of a Premiership title win on the horizon, Hearts are focused on a momentous week. The climax to the campaign is approaching and the Edinburgh club know they need just four points to win the league for the first time since 1960.
However, the process is significantly more complicated because of ongoing injury troubles. Midfielder Marc Leonard and defender Craig Halkett are the latest to suffer serious injury after both players ruptured Achilles tendons against Motherwell on Saturday.
Falkirk manager John McGlynn takes his team to Tynecastle Park on Wednesday whilst navigating injury concerns of his own. The latest news from both camps is below:
