1246: Half-time: Hamilton 0-2 Hearts
A few jeers from the main stand tells us that the home fans are not asleep. It's been all Hearts in the first 45 minutes and the visitors have cashed in with wonderful strikes from Calum Elliot and David Templeton.

1241: More calamitous defending from Hamilton allows Calum Elliot to gather a long ball and get a shot away inside the penalty box but Martin Canning gets across to make the block.

1236: It really is quiet at New Douglas Park. Every shout from the players is being picked up on TV and radio and Hearts manager Jim Jefferies' verbal blast at Calum Elliot for not holding the ball up comes over crystal clear. Not one for the easily offended...

1233: Another corner comes to nothing for the home side as Hearts keeper Marian Kello plucks Flavio Paixao's delivery out of the air.

1230: Well, Hearts are 2-0 up and they have barely broken sweat. Hamilton look rudderless, while the Edinburgh side have been neat and tidy in possession.

1227: Craig Thomson picks up a yellow card for a rash challenge on Hamilton's Dougie Imrie on the touchline near the halfway point.

What a strike from David Templeton! Accies keeper Tomas Cerny heads away a ridiculous looping back-pass from Simon Mensing and Martin Canning gifts possession to the visitors. The comic defending is punished when the Hearts midfielder cracks in a beauty from 25 yards.

1222: GOAL - Hamilton 0-2 Hearts (Templeton)

1220: Hamilton win a corner but the ball misses everyone in a congested penalty box and that rather sums up the efforts from the home team so far.

1219: "Hamilton have the Paixao brothers up front and Thomas looks like he could be a threat, but they need to get more service to them. They have this 3-4-3 system, but they have not had enough possession to supply them," says BBC Radio Scotland pundit Gordon Smith.

1216: Craig Thomson whips in a free kick and Ismael Bouzid gets in front of the home defence but the Hearts man's header flies well over the top.

From Silver City Tim On My Sport: "Well taken goal by Calum Elliot. Now it just has to stay that way for 85 minutes for me to get all 3 points off the predictor."

1210: The early hour and that goal for Hearts have not done much to get the home crowd going. It's all gone very quiet at New Douglas Park.

With their first attack the visitors take the lead in style. A neat passing exchange ends with Calum Elliot curling a sweet strike into the top corner of the net from the edge of the penalty area.

1203: Ismael Bouzid takes a sore one as he is caught by the lunging Joel Thomas lunges while tidying up at the back. The Hamilton forward picks up the first yellow card of the game.

1200: And we're off...

1158: The teams are out and Hearts are wearing a natty sky blue change strip, with the home side in their traditional red and white hoops.

1155: Bouzid, back from suspension, replaces Jason Thomson for Hearts, while Hamilton make two changes - Joel Thomas, recently returned to the club for a third spell, and Brian McQueen are drafted in for David Buchanan and Gary McDonald.

1150: TEAM NEWS:
Hamilton: Cerny, Ross, McQueen, Skelton, Canning, Marco Paixao, Mensing, Wilkie, Flavio Paixao, Thomas, Imrie. Subs: Murdoch, Graham, McDonald, McAlister, Lyle, Kirkpatrick, Routledge.
Hearts: Kello, Barr, Zaliukas, Bouzid, Wallace, Craig Thomson, Palazuelos, Black, Templeton, Santana, Elliot. Subs: Balogh, Kyle, Ryan McGowan, Novikovas, Jason Thomson, Robinson, Mrowiec.

1147: Oh, and just for good measure, the Hearts masseur was also shown a red card for the fisty-cuffs in Lanarkshire last time. Was he oiled up and wading in with his surgical gloves on?

1144: It all kicked off the last time the Jambos were at New Douglas Park. Ismael Bouzid and Michael Stewart were sent off during the game, while Ian Black and Suso Santana joined Hamilton's unused sub Leon Knight in receiving red cards for their parts in a post-match scuffle in the tunnel.

From Jimmy Jazz On My Sport: "Only one game at 3pm on Saturday. It's just wrong."

1138: The Perth Saints host Aberdeen at 1500 BST, with the visitors sure to bring a large and noisy support to the Fair City, buoyed by their high-flying start to the season.

1134: The Accies will be smarting from last weekend's 4-0 gubbing at Pittodrie, while Hearts opened their campaign with a 1-1 draw at home to St Johnstone.

1130: Welcome to our Scottish Premier League coverage on this truncated Saturday card. There are only two matches in the top flight today, beginning with the noon kick-off at New Douglas Park, where Hamilton host Hearts.
