Hearts’ Scottish Premiership season continued with a draw against Aberdeen at Pittodrie on Saturday.
A difficult start to the league season, which saw Hearts start out with a defeat against Champions Celtic, then saw a Betfred Cup exit to St Johnstone. The Jambos drew nil-nil with Aberdeen this time.
Changes were made by Nielson from that side that crashed out of the League Cup but a breakthrough couldn’t be found with Watt, like he had on his debut against a former club Celtic, was guilty of a bad miss.
Watt could have one it late on, after Aberdeen’s Burns had headed against the crossbar, but couldn’t hit the target from 12-yards out.
Here’s a round up of the Scottish Premiership action from the other matches played.
