Barry Anderson's verdict: Hearts far more menacing with Armand Gnanduillet and Liam Boyce pairing
The problem at times was converting them. A 5-1 scoreline in the hosts’ favour at Tynecastle Park would not have been unjust before a needlessly fraught ending. As it was, they settled for 2-1, a 15-point lead and another step nearer automatic promotion.
Armand Gnanduillet and Liam Boyce caused Dundee endless trouble and created a plethora of scoring opportunities. Andy Halliday took one and Gnanduillet another before Jason Cummings’ penalty threatened a comeback which really shouldn't have been possible.

Hide AdHearts finished with 15 shots at goal, seven on target, plus some gilt-edged misses. Had Gary Mackay-Steven in particular been more clinical, they would have been out of sight before Dundee’s fightback.
