vs Prediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

In the Scotland Challenge Cup Annan Athletic come off two straight wins, 2-0 against Elgin City and 4-0 against Motherwell U21; before that a 1-2 defeat away to Kelty Hearts, a 2-0 win over Dumbarton and, further back, a 2-2 draw with Berwick Rangers. Hibernian U21 have lost four of their last five outings: 0-1 away to Berwick Rangers, 0-1 away to Queen of the South, 0-4 away to Clydebank and 0-1 away to Gala Fairydean Rovers; further back a 4-4 draw away to Montrose. There is no previous meeting between the two sides. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
