Hearts v Livingston
PREMIER LEAGUE PREVIEW
Hearts will be keen to keep up the pressure on leaders Celtic, who don't play until tomorrow, and Graham Rix will be hoping for a win in his first home game in charge. However, he has a doubt over Edgaras Jankauskas, who is struggling with a hamstring injury. Michal Pospisil, who was left out of the squad by Rix last weekend, is back in the head coach's plans. Livingston manager Paul Lambert will again have to do without Derek Adams and Graham Barrett. Referee: Alan Freeland Last meeting: 4-1 Odds: H 2-7, A 7-1, D 7-2 Prediction: Home win
