Dunfermline Athletic

Preview Inverness CT

Monday, 30th Apr 2012

Inverness`s last home win was a 1-0 win over Hearts on 21st January. Dunfermline`s last away win was at Kilmarnock on the same day.

TULLOCH CALEDONIAN STADIUM PANO

Dunfermline return to Inverness this Wednesday for the third time this season..  Both the SPL game in October and the Scottish Cup tie in January ended up as 1-1 draws.  The first meeting at East End Park was another score draw and the two were only separated after extra time, last time they met, in the cup replay. 

It was at Inverness on 12th May 2007 that Dunfermline last experienced relegation and it is avoiding that fate again that will be in the forefront of the team`s thoughts as they drive up to the Highland Capital. Caley Thistle are not yet 100% safe yet so they could be tough opponents as they need a point to secure their SPL status and avoid their destiny dragging on to the final game of the season when Hibs go to the Caledonian Stadium.

Inverness Caley Thistle 0 Dunfermline 1

Terry Butcher`s men have won only one game at home since Christmas.  Dunfermline`s away form has thankfully been better than their home form and having taken four points from their last two games their confidence should be the greater. Saturday`s win over Aberdeen came after 12 matches without a win.
