Andrew Driver will be given a late fitness ahead of the Edinburgh derby but Lee Wallace and Suso Santana should start for Hearts.
Winger Driver has missed the last three weeks with a thigh problem and, although it was originally thought he wouldn't play again this season, the Jambos are hopeful he could play at Easter Road.
Wallace and Santana are expected to feature despite picking up knocks against Motherwell, while Jim Jefferies will have Eggert Jonsson back from suspension.
Hearts though are still without Jose Goncalves, Marian Kello, Janos Balogh and Marc Ridgers.
