Willie Irvine’s visitors, currently flying high at the top of the East of Scotland League second division, saw off Craig Ness’s Fife outfit – who are sitting in 11th position one league higher up – thanks to strikes by Callum MacDonald, Sean Heaver and Chris Ogilvie which secured a 3-1 victory.

Kirkcaldy & Dysart, who in this week’s draw landed a Fife derby away to St Andrews United in the League Cup second round on Wednesday, April 3, continue their league campaign with a trip to tenth-placed Preston Athletic this Saturday which kicks off at 2.30pm.
