The final Edinburgh derby of the season will take place at Tynecastle on Sunday 12 May 2013 with a midday kick off, and will be shown live on ESPN,
The fixture lists for the remaining games in the top and bottom six were due to have been announced by the SPL on Monday, but this was delayed due to protracted discussions with Police Scotland and TV companies.
With only three points separating the teams, the game could decide who has bragging right over the summer, and it will also provide some much needed extra funds into the Hearts’ coffers, whilst giving Hibs the chance to end their dismal run of SPL derbies without a win, reaching back almost four years.
The remaining fixtures are as follows.
Hibernian
Hibernian v Aberdeen, Monday 22 April, kick off 7.30pm (live on ESPN)
Hibernian v St Mirren, Saturday 27 April, kick off 3pm
Kilmarnock v Hibernian, Sunday 5 May, kick off 3pm (live on Sky Sports)
Hearts v Hibernian Sunday 12 May, kick off midday (live on ESPN)
Hibernian v Dundee, Saturday 18 May, kick off 3pm
