What channel is Hearts v Dumbarton? TV and live stream details for Premier Sports Cup clash

Derek McInnes’ side boast an 100 per cent record so far in the competition and already have one foot in the last 16 after comfortable victories over Dunfermline, Hamilton Accies and Stirling Albion, scoring four goals on each occasion.

Hearts need only draw with the Sons, who were relegated from League One last season after receiving a 15-point deduction for entering administration, to secure top spot in Group E and place in the hat for the next round but anything other than a home victory over part-time opponents would be a setback for McInnes after what has been a largely positive start to his reign.

Dumbarton have three points from two matches thus far after following a 1-0 win over Stirling Albion with a 4-0 defeat by Dunfermline.
