Hearts prepare to entertain Motherwell at Tynecastle Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Jambo's are clearly on top, having won 67 and lost only 23 of the 121 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Tynecastle Stadium was less than a year ago, in April 2005, when they played out a goalless draw in a Scottish Premier match.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Its a close one to call, but I think that Jambo's's reasonable showing at home is going to see them scrape past Motherwell. Home Win
