Only Rangers are above them, with the same number of points – though with a better goal difference and a game in hand.

Hearts Women added 11 new signings in the summer with the aim of closing the gap to the big three in the SWPL1 with European qualification a long-term aim.

"The previous three years was a transition to be a professional team. Not everyone was ready for the steps we were taking.

"We have a lot of young players but with massive potential. We want to develop them, we want to play the football we want to play. We think it is the way to get what we want to get. We dream in the future we go to Europe but it’s not a sure future, it’s a long-term future."

Tickets for November’s derby are available for free from the club’s website. Seats are available in sections P, Q, R and S of the Main Stand.
