Our prediction for this Scottish Cup match:
Arbroath
Match Time & Date:
21/01/2023
16:00
Prediction: 0-1
Motherwell
A spot in the Scottish Cup last 16 will be at stake when Arbroath and Motherwell face each other at Gayfield Park on Saturday afternoon. The Well are on a seven-game winless run in the Premiership, but they are surely capable of beating the Smokies in the Scottish Cup. All Carroll, McGinley, and Mugabi have been struggling with injuries of late, while the likes of Mandron, Maguire, and Tierney should start against the Championship side.
The hosts, on the other hand, have been struggling at the back in 2023, with the team conceding eight goals in total in the last three league fixtures. Since Motherwell are desperate to return to winning ways, we predict that Steven Hammell’s troops are going to advance to the next round. In their last meeting in the Scottish Cup, back in 2000, Motherwell defeated Arbroath 2-0.
Highlighted Player (Josh Morris):
Josh Morris is a product of Blackburn Rovers football school who plays for Fleetwood Town in the League One. Morris’ main position is left midfielder, but he is capable of playing as both left-back and central midfielder as well.
The English footballer started his senior career at Blackburn Rovers and he played for the likes of Yeovil Town, Rotherham United, Carlisle United and Fleetwood Town on loan before moving to Bradford City in the summer of 2015. Josh Morris, though, found his best form at Scunthorpe United, scoring 35 goals in 107 appearances for the club in the league.
Before the start of the 2018/2019 League One season Morris re-joined Fleetwood Town, signing a two-year contract with the Fishermen. Josh Morris scored his first goal of the season in a 3-1 win over Peterborough United at Weston Homes Stadium. His contract with Fleetwood Town should expire on June 30, 2021.
Highlighted Team (Motherwell):
Motherwell are professional football club that compete in the Scotland Premiership. The Steelmen play home games at Fir Park, the stadium which can hold up to 13,677 spectators, wearing amber and claret shirts.
White, on the other hand, is the dominant colour of the club’s away kit. Founded in 1886, Motherwell won their first domestic trophy in the 1931/32 season, leaving Scottish giants Rangers and Celtic behind them in the standings. Speaking of the Scottish Cup, the Steelmen have two titles in the cup competition. In the 1951/52 season, Motherwell defeated Dundee 4-0 in the Scottish Cup final, with the team repeating the success 39 years later as they outplayed Dundee United 4-3 in the title game.
The likes of Hamilton Academical and Airdrieonians are regarded as the club’s bitterest rivals. The games between these clubs are known as the Lanarkshire derby. Hughie Ferguson is leading the club’s all-time goal-scoring chart as he netted 284 goals for the Steelmen in league matches.
