Hearts winger Billy King is expected to return for their Scottish Championship clash with Livingston on Sunday.

King was forced to sit out their 3-0 Scottish League Cup defeat to Celtic in midweek due to an ankle knock but has been passed fit for the league match.

Spanish midfielder Miguel Pallardo is also likely to feature at some stage after working on his fitness since joining the club earlier in the month.

The match marks the return to Hearts of Livingston manager John McGlynn, who was in the Tynecastle hotseat for an eight-month spell that ended in February 2013.

McGlynn will be looking to secure a second defeat of the season over his former employers, after Livingston beat Hearts 4-1 in the Petrofac Training Cup at Almondvale in August.
