Bonnyrigg's mission in Scottish Cup last season failed in the 2nd round.It’s been three wins in a row for Bonnyrigg on their travels, an amazing performance which inspire hopes of making this one the fourth consecutive victory.
Home advantage was not enough for Bonnyrigg in their previous game, as they lost their Football League-match, hosting Rangers U21, 2-5. As you can tell from the result, the match against Rangers U21 was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 7 goals, will the fun continue today?
That result followed a home victory 3-0 versus Berwick Rangers in the Football League.Head 2 Head
