Match Preview - Linlithgow Rose

Caledonian Braves return to Alliance Park, following two consecutive away games, to take on Linlithgow Rose in the Lowland League.

Linlithgow Rose currently sit 5th in the league table with six points after a 9-2
thrashing against bottom of the table Gretna 2008 in their third match of the 23/24
campaign.

The Braves will look to improve on recent league form and bounce back after a loss
midweek away to Broomhill. The Braves suffered a 2-0 loss in Dumbarton after two
first half corners were met by Ross Smith and Daniel Higgins.

Newly promoted side Linlithgow Rose have some talented players in their squad to
call upon, including 20-year-old attacking-midfielder Calum Rae, who is current top
goal scorer at the club, scoring three goals in three games. Jack Oglivie, a 23-year-
old central-midfielder who has scored two goals in three games and Dylan Paterson,
23-year-old right-midfielder who has scored two goals in three games for the club
after joining on a free transfer from Arbroath.
