Arbroath v Raith Rovers (19:45)
It’ll be difficult to better the Friday night Championship spectacle that we took in last week, but a clash between relegation-threatened Arbroath and promotion-chasing Raith Rovers could just top it.
This evening's hosts are still looking to pick up their first win of the calendar year, while the visitors are seeking to pile the pressure on title rivals Dundee United ahead of their trip to Firhill tomorrow.
We’ll have live updates right here, as well as all the action from Gayfield on the BBC Scotland channel from 19:30.
Let’s go!
