The Pars are off on the road this week for a run of four away games. The league match between Dunfermline and Brechin City on 14th September last year was the first between these clubs since 30th April 1994.  There have been 39 league meetings between these teams; the Fifers have won 28, Brechin City 5 and 6 matches have been drawn. The best Pars result at Glebe Park was a 6-1 win in 1979 courtesy of a Mike Leonard hat trick and goals from Jimmy Mullin, Kevin Hegarty, and Walter Borthwick.

In the first meeting of this season a Robert Thomson goal put the Pars into the lead in 38 minutes but when Andy Jackson squared the game fourteen minutes from time, the Pars paid for not taking more of their first half chances.  So the last victory there on league business remains on 4th January 1994.
