League pacesetters Lithgae face tricky cup tie at Arthurlie

HIGH-FLYING Linlithgow face a testing away trip to Arthurlie as they bid to stay on course for a fifth Emirates Scottish Junior Cup triumph.

The two teams came out of the hat together in last night’s fourth-round draw, which also saw Auchinleck handed a tasty tie at home to Petershill. Arthurlie, two-times winners, won 6-1 at Steelend in the last round, having earlier beaten Broxburn 2-1 at home.

Musselburgh are at home to South Division side Pumpherston, while Bo’ness are away to Dundee Violet.
