Dundee’s failure to progress beyond the group stage in the previous season’s Scottish League Cup was significantly influenced by Airdrieonians’ 1-0 victory at Dens Park. Despite this setback, Steven Pressley’s team delivered a competitive Premiership campaign, finishing seventh and avoiding relegation concerns. This season, Championship side Airdrie returns to Dens Park, aiming to replicate their earlier success and secure another upset in the competition.
Annan Athletic and Ross County are scheduled to face off in the other Group D match on Saturday, though the road trip poses a challenge for Ross County. Meanwhile, Clyde will not participate in this weekend’s fixtures. In Group B, Dundee United takes on Stirling Albion in an evening kick-off, while Arbroath prepares to visit Spartans earlier in the day.
Last season, Dundee United, as Scotland’s European representative, received a first-round bye but were eliminated in the second round by Kilmarnock. Jim Goodwin’s squad’s seventh-place finish in the Premiership highlights their consistent performance in the top tier.
