Oli Anderson previews tonight’s SPFL Trust Trophy match against Dundee B.

The Fifers travel to Dundee this evening to face Dundee B at the Kilmac Stadium in the SPFL Trust Trophy. This is the first round that the Fifers will appear in, whereas the young Dees overcame Buckie Thistle to get to this stage. The Methil Men are winless in the league, and without a win in 90 minutes since their victory against Elgin City in Matchday 2 of the League Cup. The most recent outing was against Stranraer, where the Black and Gold struggled against the 10-man Blues side, coming back from behind through a Johnny Page goal to pick up a point.

In the previous SPFL Trust Trophy game for the Dark Blues, they showed talent and experience beyond their years winning 4-0 against last season’s Highland League runners up. Dundee raced out the traps, leading 3-0 inside 25 minutes thanks to goals for Rayan Mohammed, Jack Wilson, and former Albion Rovers striker Euan Mutale. A goal from Max Anderson in the second period put the game beyond doubt.
