The sole reason I think a big advantage Hearts have got for me is the two strikers in Lorne Shanklin and Claudio Braga.
So to fit them in the team, does that mean that he sacrifices a winger to play with three centre-halves like he did against Hibs last week?
I fully expected him to go to that 4-4-2.
And I just think he'll ask his two outside wingers to play really compact and try, instead of being a 3v2, make it a 4v3.
So I think it's going to be a fascinating game and it's one I'm extremely looking forward to.
But I do think there's been a few occasions recently, obviously the last two games are a perfect example, where I don't think Rangers have started the game well.
And for me, like I said, I think the first goal is massive tonight.
So do Rangers play with a mindset in the opening 15, 20 minutes of this game that they have to win?
Or do they try and fool their way into the game, which I think is extremely dangerous?
Because one thing I'll say about Tyne Castle is if you let the Tyne Castle crowd get on Hartsey's back like they've done, sorry, get on their side like they've done all season long, they can be a really, really difficult team to play.
What do you think?
Listen, I do think it's really difficult.
I'm going to use a comparison.
I know sometimes we don't like to use these comparisons, but I argued Nico Raskin scored a goal at Easter Road last season where I thought conclusively to me it was over the line.
Now, I can 100% then take the argument that they can't say 100% it is, but I feel like he says the images are conclusive enough that it looks over the line.
I think it's very similar with the incident yesterday.
I think it hits his hand.
Now, can I say 100% for the TV angles that it hits his hand?
Probably not, but it looks conclusive enough for me to then overrule it.
Like I said, I don't think it's an amazing result for either side, but I do think it's going to be a draw.
