Champions Celtic come to Tynecastle tomorrow in a match that many are doubting they will try to win.

The match is of course vital to the home side, who are desperate to take the points necessary to help finally secure second place and a shot at next season's Champions' League. However Celtic already have the league wrapped up and many of their fans would rather see Hearts finishing second than Rangers.

This is not due to any love of Hearts (god no!) nor even the fact that they want to shove it right up their Glasgow rivals (well not much!)....this is about money. The perception, rightly or wrongly, is that Hearts might be less likely to succeed in qualifying for the Champions League than Rangers and if Celtic are the only Scottish team in the group stages next season, they'll get a larger slice of the dough to themselves. There is also the small matter of new Rangers manager Paul Le Guen receiving £10 million less to spend on his new team!

So on the back of this it will be very interesting to see the team that Celtic put on the park tomorrow. I'd predict a strong side with perhaps a couple of youngsters in there.

Speaking of unpredictable line-ups, the home side tomorrow is anyone's guess! After last week's bizarre team selection and all the media hype surrounding Webster, Skacel and Brellier this week, it really is like picking your lottery numbers trying to predict the Hearts team.

Let's hope that the best eleven Hearts can put on the park is out there tomorrow because this is a must-win game. And Hearts are due some joy against a Celtic team that they've outplayed for long spells this season without reward.
