How to watch Hearts v Falkirk with Premiership title on line

Hearts could clinch a historic Scottish Premiership title if results go their way when they host Falkirk at Tynecastle Park on Wednesday night.

Derek McInnes’ side are one point ahead of Celtic at the top of the table with two games left and will be crowned champions for the first time in 66 years if they win and Celtic lose at Motherwell. It would also see them become the first non-Old Firm team since Aberdeen in 1985 to win the title.

Any other sequence of results will see the title race go to a final head-to-head shoot-out between Celtic and Hearts at Parkhead on Saturday where the league trophy, and a place in next season’s Champions League play-off round, will be be on the line.

It promises to be a nervy evening in Gorgie with Hearts supporters glued to the action on the pitch, but also with one eye on events at Fir Park.
