Brechin prepare to entertain Raith Rovers at Glebe Park on Saturday evening, looking to improve on a dire past record against their opponents. It does not make pleasant reading, winning just 5 of the 24 games played, and losing 13.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Glebe Park was less than a year ago, in April 2003, the City carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a Scottish Division Two match.
