Rejuvenated Gers head to Tynecastle to face the leaders on the back of an eight-game unbeaten league run under Danny Rohl which has launched them from the bottom six into fourth place. A win would move them to within six points of the Jambos with a game in hand.

And while Hearts won the previous meeting of the sides 2-0 at Ibrox - Gers' only Premiership defeat so far this season - Diomande (left) insists Derek McInnes' side will be facing a far better Gers outfit.
