Hearts host Dundee United in early season pressure clash

Hearts will be looking to bounce back from an opening-day defeat when they host Dundee United at Tynecastle Park on Sunday. The home side will be keen to secure their first points of the Premiership season, with the added pressure of avoiding an early setback.

Key absences and expected lineups

Hearts are set to be without defender Stuart Findlay, who is suspended after the Scottish FA rejected the club's appeal against his red card. Stephen Kingsley is also unavailable due to injury. The expected Heart of Midlothian XI includes Beau Reus in goal, with a defence likely featuring Harry Milne, Jamie McCart, Laurent Mendy, and potentially Jordi Altena. The midfield could see Blair Spittal and Oisin McEntee, supporting a forward line of Pierre Landry Kabore, Alexandros Kyziridis, and Claudio Braga.

Dundee United's expected lineup features Jack Walton in goal. The defence is anticipated to consist of Joshua Rawlins, Michael Forbes, and Bert Esselink. The midfield is expected to be manned by Will Ferry, Dylan Tait, Vicko Sevelj, and Emmanuel Agyei. Upfront, Zachary Sapsford and Lachlan Rose are expected to lead the line, supported by Jesse Randall.
