Hearts are set to face Kilmarnock in the Scottish Premiership, aiming to build on their strong home record, having lost only one of their last 15 home league games. Manager Neil Critchley is dealing with a tight schedule and is considering changes to the starting lineup due to injuries and illness, including the potential return of midfielder Beni Baningime. Kilmarnock will be without midfielder Liam Donnelly due to suspension and Stuart Findlay for at least a week due to a groin injury. Despite recent struggles, Kilmarnock has a decent record against Hearts in their last nine visits. Critchley looks to become the first Hearts manager to win his first two home games since 2015, while Kilmarnock's Derek McInnes seeks his first away win against Hearts since 2017. Both teams will need to navigate their injury concerns as they prepare for this crucial match.
