MATCH PREVIEW - HEART OF MIDLOTHIAN B (A)

It's Friday night football as we head to North Edinburgh to face Hearts B at Ainslie Park with a 7.45pm kick off.

Last season saw us unbeaten against the Wee Jambos with a 1-1 draw in Rosewell and a 3-1 win at Central Park.


LAST TIME OUT

For the third successive game we were denied by a late goal when we drew 2-2 with Civil Service Strollers at Central Park.


THE OPPOSITION

Hearts B, under the charge of former Cowden manager Liam Fox, have had an unbeaten start to their Lowland League campaign with three wins and a draw.

The season opened with a 7-0 home win over Gretna 2008 which was followed up by a 3-2 win over Civil Service Strollers after being 3-0 up at one stage.

A 1-1 draw at Gala followed while last Saturday they drew beat Albion Rovers 2-1 at Cliftonhill.

They currently sit in second place two points behind leaders Bo’ness United in the league table.

In the SPFL Trust Trophy they made a First Round exit losing 5-3 to Brechin City on penalties at Glebe Park after the game had finished 2-2 with the Wee Jambos scoring two late goals to cancel out the Highland League Champions lead.
