Match Preview: Dundee have been in the best form recently with Dundee losing 6 goals to both Celtic and Hearts, but Tony Docherty will make sure to have his side fired up for the cup. Airdrie come into this one off the back of 3 victories on the bounce as the Diamonds look to have their shine back. Dundee have only played one game in the Scottish Cup so far and that was against city rivals Dundee United, in which they won 1-0. This isn't Airdrie's first trip to the city of discovery in the Scottish Cup this season, with the Diamonds getting past Dundee North End in the 3rd round before getting by Dumbarton.
🔙Last time out: Dundee is not a happy hunting ground for the Diamonds, with Dundee scoring 6 on our past 2 trips to Dens. Dundee won 6-1 the last time we met with six different scorers. Adam Frizzell also scored an excellent solo effort the last time these two met.
🔍 One to watch: Simon Murray is Dundee's man to watch as he will be hopeful that he can add to his goal that he scored in the last round of the Scottish Cup.
🤕 Team News: Ricco Diack, Cade Melrose and Cammy Rowley are all cup-tied for today's game due to playing in previous rounds for their respective clubs. Aidan Wilson will miss the game with Lewis Strapp being a doubt.
🎤Presser review📝:
🗣️ Dylan's views: “They could feel a bit leggy. They’re playing Celtic away, it’s a tough place to go, and hopefully we can capitalise on that."
🗣️What Rhys had to say: “We’re fully expecting a tough game, and one that we’ll need to be at our best to get anything from."
