Review
A fairly dull and insipid start to the season with a first half where both teams appeared to spend most of the time feeling each other out. The second half started with more fizz and Fallon made a superb save from Fleming. The half developed into a lively tussle with neither team able to beat the respective goalkeepers.
Kilmarnock 1-1 Hearts
