Hearts fixtures: Scottish Premiership 2017/18

Hearts will get their 2017/18 season in the Scottish Premiership underway when they visit Celtic on August 5.

After finishing last season fifth in the Scottish Premiership, their attention now turns to the new season and will kick off with a difficult trip to Glasgow to take on the Hoops, who kicked off their unbeaten season at Tynecastle Stadium last year.

Hearts' bitter rivalry with Hibernian will be re-ignited as Neil Lennon's side won promotion back to the Scottish Premiership last season. The city rivals will meet for the first time in the new campaign on October 25 at Easter Road.

A busy festive period will see Hearts take on Hibs once again on December 27, sandwiched in between away games to St Johnstone and Aberdeen, with Hearts taking on Hibs again on March 10.

April 7 is also a date for the diary as Hearts play Aberdeen at home in the final game before the post-season split.
