National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Forfar Athletic or Arbroath that keep their silverware dream alive.

3-4-3 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Arbroath when playing away games on artifical turf, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has grass). Their goal statistics from those ten matches are 7-7 (scored/conceded).

There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a League Cup game only three days ago. That game, against St. Mirren, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Arbroath.
