We said: Hearts 1-1 Dundee

 Taking into account Dundee's upturn in form and Hearts' five-game winless run, the visitors can be considered as favourites to come out on top on Saturday. However, we feel that the hosts will find a way to claim at least a share of the spoils in front of their own fans. Read more.
