Hibs and Hearts have been selected for TV coverage in the new year

Three games have been selected for broadcast with Hibs being selected for two ties while Hearts got one. This will cover rounds 17-20 of the SWPL as well as the Sky Sports Cup semi-finals. 

Hibs, who have been on a fine run of form recently, will be the first of the Edinburgh sides to be on TV. Their away tie to Partick Thistle in the Sky Sports semi-finals will be broadcast on BBC Alba on January 21st at 16:10. It will no doubt be a tough tie with the winners set to face either Celtic or Rangers who face each on two days prior also on BBC Alba. 

A midweek game soon follows as Hearts travel to Rangers on February 7th. This will be live on BBC Alba as the Jam Tarts look to repeat last season’s success at Broadwood Stadium where they picked up a dramatic 1-1 draw. Kick-off is at 19:45. 

Finally, Hibs wrap up the broadcast matches as they travel to Celtic on February 11th. It will no doubt be a tough tie for Grant Scott’s side as they will look to continue their good form and come away with a result. Kick-off is at 16:10.
