Mike Tullberg, the injury hit Hearts striker, could make his return against Rangers next week. "I am very happy about this," boss Csaba Laszlo told Hearts News Today.
"I hope this means we have very few players injured.
"If Tullberg is back then this gives us a bit extra and more options for us to think about."
Laszlo is also considering pairing Tullberg with Christian Nade in a two-pronged attack.
"We have not seen him together with Christian Nade, because they have not been both fit at the same time. However, this is something we will consider," said Laszlo.
"I hope Mike can come back and make the same impact as Bruno (Aguiar). If he does then he would bring a fresh impulse up front."
