The international break left the Pars without a game for 15 days but after the woeful performance at Pittodrie in the first Friday night match of the 2011-12 season, it was maybe just as well that the coaching staff could take stock, injuries could have a chance to clear and confidence could recover.

Michel Pospisal scored the only goal of the game, the last time these teams met in the SPL. Late in the game, Scott Wilson headed in an Adam Hammill cross to knock Hearts out of the 2007 Tennents Scottish Cup when the sides last met in Fife.
