Brechin City are ready to welcome Raith Rovers to Glebe Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to improve on a dire past record against their opponents. It does not make pleasant reading, winning just 5 of the 26 games played, and losing 14.
The previous match played between the two at Glebe Park was within the last three years, in March 2004, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a Scottish Division One match.
