Airdrieonians have also played one game in the Viaplay Cup and also have one win, a 2-0 victory against Dumbarton at home last Saturday.

Tony’s thoughts
“Airdrie are a very good side. They got promoted last season so they are the newly promoted team in the championship. I am really impressed with them and really impressed with their manager, Rhys McCabe. He has done a great job there. They’ve got a certain way of playing and they’re very good at it. We’ve watched them and we’re impressed with them but we need to make sure that what we do is get our game plan over theirs and I know we need to be at our best against them.”
