Who will win? RadioTimes.com says…

It would be easy to say Hearts are here for the taking on Sunday and, yes, they are in crisis mode right now.

Levein has been given a vote of confidence, which usually means a sacking is around the corner unless results dramatically improve.

But Hibs' fortunes are not exactly shining either. They are ninth in the Premiership and have lost two games on the bounce - to Motherwell and Kilmarnock - without even scoring.

Yes, form supposedly goes out of the window in derbies. But when neither side has any form to boast of, it comes down to the mettle of the players.

These games are notoriously close affairs and neither side has scored more than two goals in any of the last nine Edinburgh derbies.

Both may well settle for a point.
