Hearts v Falkirk March 21 2008
Falkirk manager John Hughes has been boosted for his side's clash with Hearts with the news that on-loan Sunderland midfielder Arnau Riera is fit again and could start.
Defender Jack Ross will also come into contention for a place after recovering from injury and youngsters Kevin Moffat and Dayne Robertson have been added to Hughes' plans for Tynecastle.
Striker Michael Higdon is not yet ready to return after undergoing knee surgery and long-term absentees Tim Krul (shoulder) and Dean Holden (broken leg) remain sidelined.
Hearts have brought forward Ricardas Beniusis' season-long loan to a premature end by allowing him to return to FBK Kaunas.
With Christian Nade struggling to be fit for the clash because of a pelvic problem, caretaker coach Stevie Frail is short of striking options.
Andy Driver (thigh) and Neil McCann (ankle) could both be out for the season, while Laryea Kingston (foot) is unlikely to be fully fit for the match. Hristos Karipidis is also doubtful with a knock.
Squads:
Hearts: Banks, Basso, Neilson, Berra, Thomson, Zaliukas, Palazuelos, Wallace, Kingston, Mikoliunas, Jonsson, Stewart, Karipidis, Cesnauskis, Elliot, Mole, Ksanavicius, Makela.
Falkirk: Olejnik, Aafjes, Scobbie, Barr, Milne, Cregg, Latapy, McBride, Arfield, Riera, Barrett, Moutinho, Finnigan, Clarke, Ross, Bradley, Robertson, Supple.
