Kelty Hearts vs. Cove Rangers Match Preview Article
Welcome to the Turboscores match preview of the upcoming match between Kelty Hearts and Cove Rangers, taking place on Saturday, 14 September 2024, at New Central Park in Kelty.
Kelty Hearts, Recent Form
Kelty Hearts manager Michael Tidser will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 2-2 draw in his team's last league outing against Dumbarton.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 7 and seen valuable points lost. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games.
Winning 4 and being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 league games at New Central Park, marks a good spell of home form for Kelty Hearts.
Goalscorer Ross Cunningham will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Kelty Hearts.
Cove Rangers, Recent Form
Cove Rangers will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 1-0 win in their home outing against Montrose.
Paul Hartley will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 9 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 10 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
They have not be performing well away from home with 5 straight defeats on the road.
Findlay Marshall will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Cove Rangers.
