Albion Rvs. face a trip to Arbroath at Gayfield Park on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Wee Rovers will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 38 and win only 16 of the 68 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was earlier this season, the The Red Lichties carving out a narrow 2 - 1 victory in a Scottish F.A. Cup match.
