Heart of Midlothian v Aberdeen

Duration: 2 hours, 12 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC One Scotland HDLatest broadcast: on BBC One Scotland

Rob Maclean is joined by Michael Stewart and Willie Miller for live coverage of the Scottish Cup fourth-round tie between Heart of Midlothian and Aberdeen.

Hearts last faced the Dons in the Scottish Cup in 2010, with Aberdeen winning 2-0 at Pittodrie. The game is also nine years since the last time they met at Tynecastle in the cup. Hearts were 3-0 winners that day and went on to lift the trophy following a penalty shoot-out win over Gretna.

This season, Aberdeen enjoyed a convincing 3-1 league victory in Edinburgh in September 2015, and the two sides met again in December with Aberdeen winning 1-0 at home courtesy of an Adam Rooney penalty.

Both sides have proud Scottish Cup histories. Hearts have won the cup eight times, most recently in 2012, while Aberdeen have lifted the trophy on seven occasions, though their last triumph was in 1990.
