Dundee rivals go head-to-head in Men’s Arthur McKay Scottish Cup

The quarter-finals of the Arthur McKay Men’s Scottish Cup commence this weekend, which will see the last eight compete for a place in the semi-finals.
Potentially promoted Dundee Wanderers will be hoping to show they have what it takes to compete in Aberdeen Asset Management National League One by knocking out league one giants Grove Menzieshill in the cup.
When asked about their opponents and chances of getting to the semi-finals, Grove Menzieshill Head Coach Chris Anderson said, “They have dominated their league and should be confident going into the game, we will give them due respect. We have also had a good season and can draw on these experiences to help us on Saturday. As it is a cup game there is no room for error and no second chances. The Squad are confident and we believe we can win the game. We certainly have the quality and depth in the squad to do so.”
The victor of the draw will face Grange? in the semi-final. Grange beat Inverleith…yesterday to secure their place in the last four.
Aberdeen Asset Management National League Division One teams AAM Gordonians and Western Wildcats will battle it out for a place in the last 4. Both teams are yet to play each other outdoors this season, which could call for an unpredictable and exciting spectacle.
In the other side of the draw, Watsonians will try and replicate their form, which seen them defeat Glasgow University 6-0 in the previous round, and cause an upset against former league one winners Kelburne.
