Match Preview

After edging out Linlithgow Rose in the Fourth Round of the Scottish Cup on Tuesday evening, Raith Rovers return to league action this weekend, when they face Inverness Caledonian Thistle at Stark’s Park.

A brace from Jamie Gullan saw Rovers into the next round, where they’ll face a home tie against Motherwell on the second weekend of February.

Saturday’s opponents go into this one in fine fettle, with a 0-0 draw against Queen’s Park last time, following excellent wins over Cove Rangers and Arbroath, 6-1 and 4-1 respectively.

That sequence has helped ease relegation fears around the Caledonian Stadium, after eight league games without a win had seen them slide down the table.

However, in a tight division, they now sit sixth in the table, one place and point better off than Raith, and just three points behind fourth placed Partick Thistle.

Tuesday’s win now makes it eight games without loss for Raith in all competitions, but they’ll need to overturn a horrendous record against Inverness, if they’re to get the three points.

Rovers have now went 30 matches without a win over Inverness in 90 minutes, with this season’s fixtures producing a 2-0 defeat at Stark’s Park in September, and a 1-1 draw in Inverness in November, with Sam Stanton opening the scoring after 13 minutes, only for Robbie Deas to equalise before half time.

Inverness have had some movement in the January window, with George Oakley leaving the club to join Morton, while right midfielder, Jay Henderson has joined on loan from St Mirren.

Saturday’s match referee will be Scott Lambie.
