Hearts will try to put their domestic woes behind them on Thursday by chalking up a first win of the season on the opening night of the UEFA Conference League league phase against Dinamo Minsk.
Hearts, under the interim stewardship of Liam Fox, have not won any of their 10 fixtures this season, but will hope that the switch of venue to Azerbaijan for their showdown with the Belarusian champions will bring a much-needed change in fortunes.
Dinamo Minsk v Hearts is available to watch on TNT Sports 3 in the UK.
Dinamo Minsk v Hearts will kick-off at 17:45 BST on Thursday 3rd October and is being played at Mehdi Huseynzade Stadium in Sumgait, Azerbaijan.
Dinamo Minsk have already played eight matches in Europe this season, beating Pyunik (1-0 on agg) and losing to Ludogorets (2-1) in the UEFA Champions League, before defeating Lincoln Red Imps (3-2) and losing to Anderlecht (2-0) in the UEFA Europa League.
They have won four of their last five matches, all by 2-0 scorelines, and they are second in the Belarus top flight, three points behind leaders Neman Grodno but with three games in hand.
Hearts have yet to win any of the ten matches they have played this season, losing eight of them, including both legs of their UEFA Europa League qualifying tie against Viktoria Plzen.
They snapped an eight-game losing streak on Saturday when, in their first match under caretaker boss Fox, they drew 1-1 against Ross County.
This is the first ever meeting between these two clubs.
