n the Scottish Cup.
The capital will see double derbies in the new year, with an SPL clash at Tynecastle on January 3 and the Scottish Cup match the following weekend.
John Rankin said: "As the draw started and with Celtic and Rangers out of the hat, I knew we would be drawn against Hearts.
"Even though there was still St Mirren and Kilmarnock in the hat, I knew there was only going to be one team for us."
Warning over Capital starsSCOTLAND boss Craig Burley has warned it wont be long until Christophe Berra and Stephen Fletcher are tempted away from the Capital with big money offers.
Jambos star Berra has been linked with Fulham and Wolves, while Hibs striker Fletcher is said to have been scouted by Real Madrid and Manchester City.
And Burley reckons the Edinburgh duo will go all the way to the top.
