Hearts secured their place in the Fifth Round of the Scottish Gas Scottish Cup with a 4-1 win away to Brechin City.
Neil Critchley's men have hit form in recent weeks, having won five of their last six matches in all competitions, culminating in a 6-0 win away to Dundee in the William Hill Premiership last weekend.
Both sides have a win each after two meetings between the two so far this season. Richard Taylor forced an own goal before Toyosi Olusanya netted the winner for Saints in a 2-1 victory over Hearts at The SMiSA Stadium in September. Hearts were victorious in the following match at Tynecastle, winning 4-0 in Neil Critchley's first match in charge of the Gorgie side.
The Jam Tarts picked up the win the last time the two met in the Scottish Cup. Despite goals from Eamonn Brophy and Connor Ronan seeing Saints fightback from 2-0 down, Hearts prevailed 4-2 at Tynecastle in the quarter-final stage back in March 2022.
