After an impressive 3-2 over St Mirren on Sunday, Dunfermline hope to keep up their Betfred Cup momentum in their next Group H match on Wednesday night. The Albion Rovers game pitches Stevie Crawford up against an old team mate in Kevin Harper. Albion had a strong end to the season under him, they won on Saturday and they will be anxious to try and keep that going.
