I've gone all American football with the @ thing.
I'm still píssed off this game is on tonight and not tomorrow given that I'd paid for my train tickets and I'm now having to miss the game, but in Scottish football fans don't count of course, so we're at Tynecastle tonight against relegation certainties Heart of Midlothian.
We have a full squad to choose from apart from Australian international Curtis Good who is injured, although news is that he's progressing nicely and may be fit in time for the cup semi final.
They probably have a couple injured but I haven't looked.
I can't see anything other than a comfortable United victory tonight in front of the BT cameras.
If Jackie follows his trend then Gauld will return to the bench tonight as he doesn't seem to like playing him in televised games. So I predict the team will be:
-----------------------------Radoslav Cierzniak---------------------------------
Keith Watson---John Souttar---Gavin Gunning---Andrew Robertson
----------------------Paul Paton------Jon Rankin------------------------------
--Gary McKay-Steven-------Ryan Dow--------Stuart Armstrong-------
-----------------------------------Nadir Ciftci------------------------------------
As will be the case for every game until the end of the season, this is an important three points and is likely to be our easiest game of the season in the league that's left to play. Every other game in the league is going to be a hard, hard match so we need the win. All the other European chasers have home games against bottom 6 clubs.
Ivan's Prediction: Heart of Midlothian 0 Dundee United 3
Mon the Terrors
United @ Hearts

Disgraceful, misspelling our goalkeeper's name like that. It's Radoslaw you culturally-insensitive heathen. Also John Rankin... and Mackay-Steven.
Was wanting to go to this game as well, but it's on TV & a Friday night... think the TV will suffice. Shame, as it'll be our last chance to visit Tynecastle for a while.
Hopefully a win though, your team (sans spelling mistakes) looks good. Next game will be interesting without Robertson & Çiftçi though...

Been hit with injuries Ghod, as you'd expect really. He had a big impact in his comeback game off the bench and looked really strong although he wasn't particularly effective last weekend. Hopefully we'll build him back up to his best form.

Jon Rankin is spelled correctly
Although the rest of the mistakes are my fault.
I'll miss Tynecastle. It's a great venue and one where we normally take a good support to.

I've come to expect a higher quality from you Ivan. You've let yourself & the whole class down.

I feel ashamed of myself.
Paul, reading articles is often a good thing to do before plunging in with a comment. I find it helps me in at least 60% of the articles I comment on.
