Dunfermline Athletic take on Cove Rangers in Tuesday’s League Cup clash.
Full predictions, pre-match stats and user poll for Dunfermline Athletic v Cove Rangers are shown on this page - along with the latest match odds.
Dunfermline Athletic, following on from their previous result, will be hoping for more of the same after a 4-1 League Cup triumph vs Dumbarton.
It’s been seldom in recent games that Dunfermline Athletic have shown defensive steel. In fact, Dunfermline Athletic have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous 6 clashes, letting in 10 goals along the way. That kind of pattern isn’t assured to be carried forward into this game, however.
After a losing effort in their last game against St Mirren in League Cup action, Cove Rangers and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one.
Roland Idowu (31'), Ramos (42'), Luke Douglas (81') and Jalmaro Calvin (85') scored for St Mirren.
The trend of at least one side getting a clean sheet in games featuring Cove Rangers has become fairly consistent in recent matches. Looking at their last 6 outings reveals that it has occurred 5 times. In those clashes, their opponents have managed a goal tally of 8 and Cove Rangers have scored 7.
Regarding absentees, there’s just a single fitness concern for the Dunfermline Athletic boss Neil Lennon to contend with thanks to an almost full-strength group. Aston Oxborough (Hand injury) is out of contention.
Thanks to a mainly full-strength squad, there’s just the sole fitness worry for the Cove Rangers gaffer Paul Hartley to be concerned about. 1 (Cove Rangers) won’t be playing here.
In our opinion, Cove Rangers are capable enough to put a goal past this Dunfermline Athletic side, but it is unlikely to be as many as they’ll concede.
Our selection here is for a very close game with a 2-1 winning margin for Dunfermline Athletic by the time that the referee blows the final whistle.
Checking the latest betting odds for this match in the WDW market, victory for Dunfermline Athletic can be had for 1.29, a wager on the game finishing all-square is 5 & taking a punt on the win for Cove Rangers gets you 10. They are the best returns offered at this very moment.
