Hearts boss Gary Locke is without Jamie Hamill and Ryan Stevenson as the Jambos look to bid farewell to the Scottish Premiership with a win over St Mirren at Love Street.
Hamill was given an extra three-game suspension after pushing over Ross County boss Derek Adams last month, while Stevenson is ruled out with a knee injury in the Edinburgh outfit's first game since Ann Budge completed her takeover.
St Mirren fans may be looking to Gregg Wylde and Kenny McLean, both of whom start, to steer them to what could be their best top-flight finish in 25 years, should they end the season in seventh.
However, much of the speculation at the Saints surrounds the future of manager Danny Lennon, who is out of contract at the end of the season and yet to agree a deal with the club's hierarchy.
St Mirren: Dilo, Naismith, Kelly, Goodwin, McGregor, McAusland, Teale, Newton, Magennis, McLean, Wylde
Hearts: MacDonald; Paterson, McGowan, Wilson, McHattie; D. Smith, Robinson, Holt, Nicholson; Walker; Carrick
