A: ♥2 - Here, we know that the opponents have a good fit in Clubs.
Therefore, a trump lead will not allow to limit any tricks from ruffs.
Your Spade opposition is not very strong, so declarer will be able to establish his Spades and discard losers from dummy.
Whenever it is likely that declarer’s plan will be to discard losers, you need to lead aggressively, so that you establish tricks for the defense before declarer develops his tricks.
Therefore, you need to lead fourth best in Hearts.
