St Mirren are back at The SMiSA Stadium for the first time in almost a month with Saints set to host Hearts in the cinch Premiership.
The Buddies made a winning return from the international break with Scott Tanser's second-half goal seeing Stephen Robinson's men defeat Motherwell 1-0 at Fir Park.
Saints sit in second place in the cinch Premiership after picking up 11 points from our opening five matches.
Hearts notched their second league win of the season with a 2-0 defeat of Aberdeen at Tynecastle on Saturday. Goals from Yutaro Oda and Liam Boyce either side of half-time were enough to see the Jambos win in the league for the first time since the opening day of the season.
Steven Naismith's side have seven points from their opening five league matches with two wins, a draw and two defeats.

Previous
The Buddies won one, drew two and lost one of our four meetings against Hearts last season.
Saints were held to a 2-2 draw when Hearts visited The SMiSA Stadium in May. First-half goals from Joe Shaughnessy and Ryan Strain were cancelled out by a Josh Ginnelly goal and a Lawrence Shankland penalty deep in to stoppage time. That was our second draw with the Jam Tarts after another Strain free-kick saw the points shared at The SMiSA Stadium in a 1-1 stalemate in January.
Goals from Curtis Main and Mark O'Hara gave us victory when we faced the Jambos at Tynecastle in April. The 2-0 win was our first in Gorgie since 2013. Hearts took the points in the other Tynecastle meeting - winning 1-0 in January.
