Hearts' McInnes Looks Forward to Thrilling Clash Against Celtic

Hearts manager Derek McInnes is eagerly anticipating what could be the most dramatic match of the season as his team prepares to face Celtic on the final day of the Scottish Premiership. With six league matches remaining, Hearts are currently one point ahead of second-placed Rangers, while Celtic trails by two points. McInnes expressed his excitement about the upcoming fixtures, including the potential title-deciding match against Celtic. The Hearts boss noted that the league's scheduling of the post-split fixtures often generates significant attention, but he is focused on the prospect of a thrilling conclusion to the season. McInnes acknowledged that the trip to Celtic Park on May 16 could be a decisive match, particularly if both teams are still in contention for the title. He also discussed the impact of the fixture on the fans, who will have limited ticket availability. McInnes believes that the league and TV companies will aim to maximize the drama of the final match, and he is eager for his team to be involved in what promises to be an unforgettable encounter. However, McInnes also reported on several injury concerns, including Tomas Magnusson's thigh problem, which may keep him out for the remainder of the season. The manager confirmed that the club will appeal Marc Leonard's red card, and he provided updates on the status of several other injured players, including Stuart Findlay, Harry Milne, and Craig Gordon.
