Our pre-match preview
Cup football at Brunton Park is likely to be direct and physical, with both sides looking to win the ball high and move it quickly into the final third. Expect a tight opening period as neither team is likely to take big risks early on.
The key battle will be in midfield, where the team that wins the second balls will control the tempo. How the full-backs handle wide runs will also shape where the chances come from.
