When a team are seeking to end a long wait for a league title, it would be fair to expect some angst.

Just ask Arsenal, who have stumbled recently in their quest for a first Premier League title in two decades.

Hearts, who have not won the Scottish top-flight since 1960, outwardly at least, appear to be wearing their shot at history more lightly.

Derek McInnes' side are just back from a week in Spain as they gear up for the final five games, when the top half of the table all face each other.

They only have a one-point advantage to protect in a three-way fight with Rangers and Celtic, who are three off the pace, but are intent on embracing the pressure.

"There's a lot of humour and enjoyment with this - it's got to be, football isn't always easy," McInnes said.

"When you're in and around it, it feels as if we're just enjoying our work.

"We want to enjoy it, but there's a serious part to it in the sense that we're all well aware now that we've come this far, put a lot into this season.

"And like anything, any race or any competition, it's how you finish the season normally that matters."
