History of the Inverness Caledonian Thistle v Brechin City fixture

Inverness CT play host to Brechin City at Caledonian Stadium on Saturday evening, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 2 of the 4 previous games, with the Caley Thistle? winning just 1.

The last time the two teams met at Inverness CT was back in May 1998, over five years ago, the Caley Thistle? carving out a narrow 2-1 victory in a Scottish Division Two match.
