Dundee vs Hearts lineups

Dundee

After a solid Scottish League Cup campaign, Dundee have struggled to find their stride since the Premiership restarted; they are without a win in two matches, with a draw and a loss. Tony Docherty's men will set their sights on their first win of the season as Hearts come to town. Aaron Donnelly is sidelined for the hosts with an ankle injury.

Predicted lineups: Carson, McGhee, Shaughnessy, Ashcroft, McCowan, Mulligan, Cameron, Boateng, Beck, Bakayoko, Robinson.

Hearts

Hearts' unbeaten run came to an end a few days ago, at the hands of PAOK. They had won back-to-back games prior to that loss, and had no losses in three matches. Frankie McAvoy's lads will look to put that loss behind them as they visit Dens Park this weekend. Alex Cochrane is serving the last of his three-game suspension due to a straight red.

Predicted lineups: Clark, Offiah, Kent, Rowles, Kingsley, Sibbick, Nieuwenhof, McKay, Lowry, Vargas, Shankland.

Starting lineups

*Lineups will be automatically updated shortly after they're announced.

Player to watch: Lawrence Shankland

It's important to point out that only two players scored more goals than Lawrence Shankland in the Scottish Premiership last season; he bagged 24 league goals in 37 appearances for the Jam Tarts. Interestingly, the 28 year old picked up where he left off; as he has five goals and one assists across all competitions this campaign. Keeping that in mind, it'll be interesting to see how Lawrence Shankland matches up against Dundee's defense.
