National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Inverness CT or Airdrieonians that keep their silverware dream alive.
7-4-4 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Airdrieonians when playing away games on grass, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has artifical turf). Their goal statistics from those 15 matches are 24-20 (scored/conceded).
Airdrieonians could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a League Cup game only three sleeps ago.
Inverness CT form and stats
Last season, Inverness CT's League Cup journey ended in the 2nd round.Inverness CT have played 18 Championship games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 6-7-5 (wins-draws-losses).
The followers hope that Inverness will strike back in this game, putting things right after the 1-2 away defeat in the League Cup fixture against Dumbarton.
A home victory ahead of that match, as expected. The team were huge favourites against Bonnyrigg Rose Athletic and won 2-1.
Inverness CT are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 25 goals in 18 games.
Airdrieonians form and stats
Airdrieonians's mission in League Cup last season failed in the group stage.The club members enjoyed Airdrieonians's previous match versus Dundee, a League Cup win (1-0) played at home.
A home win as predicted against Dumbarton preceding that, in the League Cup.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Airdrieonians manager McCabe as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Bonnyrigg Rose Athletic.
