Raith Rovers vs Arbroath – Match Preview / PPV
cinch Scottish Championship – Game 23 – Season 2021/2022
Saturday 16th January 2022, Kirkcaldy, 3.00pm kick off
We have our second away game in a row as we travel to Kirkcaldy today to take on John McGylnn’s Raith Rovers.
Raith Rovers have only lost once at home at Stark’s Park and with 500 fans cheering them on we know this will be another very difficult match.
Raith Rovers have signed former loan Lichtie Ben Williamson on loan from Rangers and we know the quality that Ben possess. In addition, Sam Stanton has arrived from Dundalk whilst David McKay returns from a loan spell with Edinburgh City but Dylan Tait has returned to Hibernian after his loan came to an end.
Arbroath welcome Craig Wighton into the squad and it is hoped that Jason Thomson will also return to the side after missing out last week. Of course this is the first match since Joel Nouble has returned to Livingston but Jack Hamilton and Craig Wighton have joined the club and we look forward to seeing them in action.
It will be another extremely tough match but we hope you can cheer us on from home!
C’mon the Lichties!
