Hearts are able to welcome winger David Smith back from a knee injury for tonight's Scottish Premiership fixture against Dundee United at Tynecastle.
However, Jamie Walker remains a few weeks away from a return for the rock-bottom Jambos, while Callum Tapping also misses out as he recovers from a knee problem.
Fourth-placed United, with the exception of on-loan Newcastle United defender Curtis Good, have a virtually full squad to choose from.
Nadir Ciftci and Andrew Robertson are both available before having to serve suspensions at the end of the month.
Hearts: MacDonald, Paterson, McGowan, Wilson, McHattie, Smith, Hamill, Robinson, Nicholson, Carrick, Stevenson
Subs: Ridgers, McKay, McGhee, Holt, King, Beith, Oliver
Dundee United: Cierzniak, Wilson, Gunning, Dillon, Robertson, Paton, Rankin, Graham, Armstrong, Dow, Ciftci
Subs: McCallum, Souttar, Butcher, Gomis, El Alagui, Gauld and Smith
