Hibernian prepare to entertain Heart of Midlothian at Easter Road Stadium on Sunday afternoon, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 55 of the 138 previous games, with the The Hibees winning just 42.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Easter Road Stadium was less than a year ago, in May 2010, with Hearts inflicting a narrow 1-2 defeat upon the The Hibees in a Scottish Premier match.

Recent respective form guides
Hibernian's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While The Hibees have scored 7, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.
Hearts's away form is none too clever either, picking up four victories from the last six. The games have constituted a decent return of 13 goals for the Jambo's, and 8 goals against.
Hibernian are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 8 points from 10 matches. Hearts lie just outside the playoff positions in the Clydesdale Bank Scottish Premier, picking up 14 from their 10 games so far.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Nothing seems to be going right for the The Hibees at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the Jambo's come away with an easy victory. Away win
