Hearts can give themselves real hope in the battle for the best of the rest in the Premiership and narrow the gap on Aberdeen by beating them at Tynecastle.
The capital side look they have picked up some momentum and, importantly, the fighting spirit that they were lacking towards the end of the Robbie Neilson stewardship.
They fought back from a man down and two goals down to dig out a huge point at St Mirren last week and if they beat the Dons on Saturday, the gap reduces to just two points with two games to go.
It should be pointed out third place will mean guaranteed European football up until Christmas and up to £6 million so it's huge for both clubs.
Aberdeen clung on for a point after being outplayed at home against Hibs last week, who missed a penalty too.
And there are doubts over injuries to key players Duk and Ross McCrorie too.
Hearts won 5-0 in the last meeting between the teams in Gorgie and while a lot has changed since then, Hearts can get the vital win at 13/10.
ALBION ROVERS can get the job done at home to Spartans and stay in the Scottish League.
The play-offs for a League Two place will go to the wire after a draw in Edinburgh last week which new Rovers boss Sandy Clark described as ‘rubbish football.'
But the Wee Rovers look to have more quality than the Lowland League champions with outstanding young talent Charlie Reilly set to play his final match for Rovers before his transfer to
Dundee.
They beat champions Stirling Albion in Coatbridge the other week and while the Binos had already been crowned as title holders, it was an important win.
They look attractively priced at 29/20 here at Ciltonhill.
AIRDRIE can finish the job against Lanarkshire rivals Hamilton Accies and swap divisions with them.
The Diamonds took a narrow 1-0 home advantage into the second leg of the Championship play-offs after the first leg.
They have to travel the short distance to New Douglas Park, but they were far too good for Falkirk after a semi-final mauling and Rhys McCabe's men have been one of the form teams in Scotland as the season comes to an end and can win again 8/5 in what could be a fiery affair both on and off the park.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
HEARTS 13/10
ALBION ROVERS 29/20
AIRDRIE 8/5.
