When the first Hibs vs Hearts clash is as 2025/26 Premiership fixtures are released
Edinburgh's big two will lock horns at least three times in the league Hibs finished best of the rest last season. Now it's up to Derek McInnes to make Hearts Scotland's third force again. The Jambos had a campaign to forget as Steven Naismith and Neil Critchley both lost their jobs - with Liam Fox steadying the ship for the final few games. Across the city, the Hibees' faith in David Gray was rewarded as the club legend recovered from a nightmare start to lead the club from bottom to third - overseeing a remarkable 17-game unbeaten run that will live long in the memory of supporters. There's no question Hibs head into 2025/26 with the bragging rights as the Europa League hopefuls look to continue their rise under Gray. And Edinburgh's big two will lock horns in the first blockbuster battle of the season at Tynecastle on Saturday, October 4. Hearts will then make the trip to Easter Road for a festive cracker on Saturday, December 27 before another clash under the lights of Gorgie on Wednesday, February 11. Dates and kick-off times are subject to change due to TV selection. As Hearts missed out on the top six, Scottish football was robbed of a fourth Edinburgh derby last term. All going well this year, the duo could meet a fourth time in the league depending on the final positions in the league standings after Matchday 33.
