Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Aberdeen U21 & Fraserburgh face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Aberdeenshire Shield. All the pre-match information is available here!
Fraserburgh could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Football League - Highland League game only four sleeps ago. That game was also an away game, at Huntly. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
