Celtic goalkeeper Craig Gordon expects Hearts to be on top of their game when the sides clash in the Scottish Cup fourth round at Tynecastle this Sunday.
Hearts take on Ronny Deila's sode on the back of a 2-0 victory over Rangers which lifted them nine points clear in the race for the Championship title.
Goals from Jason Holt and Jamie Walker secured the points for Robbie Neilson's men last Saturday and Gordon, who spent seven years with Hearts, says they will be desperate to build on that performance.
Hearts are still undefeated in the league so it makes it a big game and one where they will probably fancy their chances.
Speaking to Sky Sports News HQ, Gordon, who won the Scottish Cup with Hearts in 2006, said: "They will be right up for this on Sunday. They are still undefeated in the league so it makes it a big game and one where they will probably fancy their chances.
"But that is good for us as they will come out and look to try and win the game and hopefully it will be a nice open match and one that the fans will enjoy."
And Gordon, who returned to the Scotland squad against England earlier this month after a four-year absence, believes victory at Tynecastle on Sunday will go a long way to helping the Hoops achieve their ultimate goal this season.
"I have one Scottish Cup to my name with Hearts and I am desperate to win everything in Scotland," he added.
"We still have a chance to do that (the treble) this year. We have a lot of hard game but that has to be the aim... try to win them all.
"We're at Celtic and we're top of the league now and favourites in pretty much every game we go into, certainly domestically, and that has been our aim since the start of the season."
