Dallas hasn't yet taken charge of a game involving Hearts this season - or in fact this year. Stats show the last Hearts match he refereed was the 2-2 draw with St Johnstone at McDiarmid Park in December 2018.

Clancy has already taken charge of two Hibs matches this season - the 2-0 defeat at Rugby Park and Hibs' 2-0 win over Alloa in the Betfred Cup group stages.

It will, however, be just his second match involving Hibs and Celtic - he was the man in the middle for the Hoops' 4-2 Betfred Cup semi-final win at Hampden in 2017.
