Raith Rovers vs Arbroath – Match Preview
cinch Scottish Championship – Game 33 – Season 2021/2022
Saturday 15th April 2023, Starks Park, Kirkcaldy, 3.00pm kick off
Arbroath travel to Starks Park today for our penultimate away fixture of the season to take on Ian Murray’s Raith Rovers.
Despite being on the back of 3 consecutive defeats, Stark’s Park is always a tough place for Arbroath to visit.
Raith Rovers have the upper hand over the Lichties this season with two wins at Gayfield whilst Colin Hamilton rescued a point for Arbroath on our last visit to Stark’s Park in December.
Raith Rovers have been battling an injury crisis but are expected to have players back for today.
Arbroath will be without Colin Hamilton and Scott Bitsindou and it will be interesting to see if Manager Dick Campbell makes changes to his starting line up after suffering his first defeat in 8 games in Inverses on Tuesday.
It will be another tough match but we hope to see you cheering on the team in Kirkcaldy.
C’mon the Lichties!
