Hearts are in Greece aiming to overturn a deficit in the Europa Conference League play-off.
Hearts head coach Frankie McAvoy"We've had a good few days preparation for this occasion. We knew it was a thing we spoke about when we came in, we need to do our utmost to qualify and get into the group stages. We know it's down to this one game, maybe 90, 120 mins, penalties. We need to give everything we've got.
"We need to be as strong and compact defensively as we can be and be threatening when we break forward. They've played two more offensive full-backs to try and pin us in. Their coach has said the tie isn't finished yet and I believe the same. We're capable of creating problems and getting goal scoring opportunities. It's just about taking them.
"Toby [Sibbick] came on in the last leg and did well. Energy and legs is a big factor in us choosing him tonight. He can offer us a presence, especially at set-plays. We believe he has the energy and drive to push us forward when we get opportunities. "We've got to embrace occasions like this. It's a fantastic opportunity for them. They were in the quarter-finals two seasons ago. We know they have a raucous home support and have a decent home record. Nothing says we can't go there and cause an upset. That's what we need to do if we have real aspirations."
