Dunfermline Athletic

Preview Ross County

Sunday, 22nd Mar 2009

Everyone at East End Park hopes that the Homecoming Scottish Cup Quarter Final win at Aberdeen, followed by the demolition of Clyde on Saturday will be the start of a run of successful results.

Victoria Park, Dingwall

Tuesday night`s First Division match against Ross County will be the Pars third visit to the most Northerly League Club in the country and hopefully this time there will be a game.  This will only the clubs fourth meeting in competitive action. The only previous meetings, the Scottish Cup on 25th January 1997 when County were knocked out 4-0 courtesy of goals from Harry Curran, Hamish French and an Andy Smith brace, the September fixture at East End Park that Dunfermline won 3-1 and the 2-1 defeat at East End Park in February.

Everyone at East End Park hopes that the Homecoming Scottish Cup Quarter Final win at Aberdeen, followed by the demolition of Clyde on Saturday will be the start of a run of successful results. The recent win over the Pars by Ross County will boost their confidence but a win at Dingwall for Jim McIntyre`s men is sorely needed if promotion is to remain a reality.

County could draw level with the Fifers in sixth place if they are able to register a win.. Their league home form has been better of late with just the two defeats since October by Livingston and Partick Thistle.
