East Fife manager Gary Naysmith is relishing the prospect of a Petrofac Training Cup quarter-final tie against Rangers at Bayview.

East Fife manager Gary Naysmith is relishing the prospect of a Petrofac Training Cup quarter-final tie against Rangers at Bayview.

The League 2 side made the long haul north to Highland League champions Brora on Tuesday and came away with an impressive 3-2 win despite twice being behind.

It needed a stoppage-time penalty from Lee McCulloch to earn Rangers the points when the sides met in Methil back in March and Naysmith said: "I’m looking forward to it - regardless of who we got it was going to be a difficult tie.
 
“We’ve played Rangers twice since I became manager - they were both close games so I think it’s one we should look forward to rather than fear.”
