In the Lowland League West, Kelty Hearts defeated Stirling Albion 3-2, while Johnstone Burgh and Albion Rovers played to a 2-2 draw.

In the Scottish Premiership, the Edinburgh derby took place at Easter Road Stadium between Hibernian and Hearts. Hibernian entered the match following a Conference League exit against Gent, while Hearts arrived on a six-match unbeaten run.

Josh McPake scored shortly after the dismissal to seal the win. Hearts manager Wouter Vrancken praised the team for maintaining ‘focus and concentration’ following Hibernian’s attempt to rally.
