FC Thun beat Heart of Midlothian 3-1 in the UEFA Conference League on Thursday, earning its first points of the league phase. Thun now has three points after three matches; Hearts remain on one. The result changes their European totals, while the latest domestic tables still place Hearts third in Scotland and Thun ninth in Switzerland.

The match was played at Arena Thun in Thun, Switzerland, on Thursday, November 5. UEFA listed kickoff at 6:45 p.m. Central European Time (CET, UTC+01:00), which was 5:45 p.m. Greenwich Mean Time in the United Kingdom and 17:45 UTC. Both Switzerland and the UK had ended daylight saving time on October 25, so the UK time was one hour behind Thun.

Where do Thun and Hearts stand in the Conference League?

Thun’s win lifts it to three points from a 1-2 record. It had lost 1-0 away to FC Twente and 1-0 at home to Hajduk Split before Thursday. Hearts have one point from three games: they drew 1-1 with Nordsjælland, lost 2-0 at Trabzonspor, and then fell 3-1 in Thun. Those totals put the teams at different starting points for the second half of the league phase, with three matchdays still to play.

The Conference League uses one table for all 36 clubs. After six league-phase games, the top eight advance directly to the round of 16, places nine through 24 go into the knockout-phase playoffs, and teams ranked 25 through 36 are eliminated. At the halfway mark, Thun’s first win is a meaningful recovery, but the result alone does not secure a place in either knockout route. Hearts will need to add points in the remaining games. Their exact overall ranking also depends on the other clubs’ results and UEFA’s tiebreakers, so the official UEFA standings page is the place to check the live table.

Thun took the lead in the first half and went into the break 2-0 ahead. Brighton Labeau added a third after halftime, and Stuart Findlay scored late for Hearts. The match was briefly interrupted early on after smoke from pyrotechnics affected visibility, according to Swiss public broadcaster SRF. The confirmed final score was 3-1.

What are the teams’ domestic league positions?

The SPFL table lists Hearts third with a goal difference of plus seven. Its listed total is from 11 league matches; the 3-1 European loss does not alter that domestic record. The Swiss Football League’s 2026/27 match center places Thun ninth, on 13 points, with a minus-10 goal difference after 12 matches. The clubs’ domestic rankings are current through different numbers of games and come from separate competitions, so their points totals should not be read as a head-to-head comparison.

What does the result mean for the next round?

Thun’s European campaign now has a win to build on, while Hearts have little room to waste another match if they want to climb toward the playoff positions. That is a standings-based assessment, not a prediction: three games remain, and each team’s route will depend on its own results as well as the crowded league table. UEFA’s fixture list has Thun at Ajax and Hearts against Monaco on November 26. The league phase then continues with Matchdays 5 and 6 in December.

For readers following the teams at home, the domestic picture is distinct from Europe. Hearts’ third-place position keeps them near the top of the Scottish table, while Thun’s ninth-place spot leaves it in the lower part of Switzerland’s 12-team standings. A European win may improve confidence and points totals in that competition, but it does not itself move either club in its national league.
