The two clubs go into the derby level on six points, with only goal difference keeping Hearts third and Hibs fifth.
Both have followed the same pattern too, an opening day defeat followed by back to back league wins.
Hibernian lost 1-2 at home to Motherwell before winning at Ibrox and then 2-1 at Dundee on Saturday, David Gray’s side steadying themselves after a bruising European exit.
They led Gent 2-1 at Easter Road with 13 minutes left before conceding twice in the final six, a 91st minute own goal from Miguel Chaiwa ending their Conference League run.
Rocky Bushiri is the only injury concern for the hosts, ruled out until later this month with an Achilles problem.
Hearts arrive unbeaten in six after a start that could hardly have gone worse for Wouter Vrancken, who lost his first four games in charge.
A 4-0 win over Dundee United turned it around, and they have since reached the Conference League league phase and beaten St Johnstone 2-1 at Tynecastle.
James Wilson has three goals in his last four appearances at 19 years old and should lead the line again.
Ageu, Craig Halkett, Malachi Fagan-Walcott, Stephen Kingsley and Tom Renaud are all unavailable for the visitors.
Hearts have won three of the last four meetings, including a 2-1 win on their most recent trip to Easter Road in April.
