Fife Cup Preview

MATCH PREVIEW – BURNTISLAND SHIPYYARD

We take a break from the First Division as we head to the Recreation Ground to face Burntisland Shipyard in the First Round of the Fife Cup on Tuesday night (kick-off 6.30 p.m.).

The game will give Colin Cameron the opportunity to give some of our fringe players some vital game time.

‘Shippy’ are now competing in the First Division of the East of Scotland League after many years in the amateur ranks and beat Ormiston 1-0 on Saturday in their opening league game.

COWDEN FORM

We head into the tie on the back of four successive league and cup wins during which time we haven’t conceded a goal.
