Backlog starts at the MGM Timber After a seasonal collapse, Inverness need to get back on track quickly as they play catch-up at the home of East Fife. Tuesday night @19:45 will see the Methil men take on a stuttering Caley Jags, fresh from being dumped out of the Scottish Cup by league2 leaders Spartans. East Fife are on a similar trajectory to the Caley Jags having lost all four of their games in a month since beating Elgin City in the KDM Trophy. Their form has been erratic, going from beating Stenhousemuir 1-0 at home to being thrashed 5-0 by the same side less than a month later. Like Inverness, their early season form seems to have deserted them and recent games have left both sets of fans looking for for an improvement. Time for the Caley Jags players to stand up and be counted. There's plenty waiting in the wings if they can't keep a level of consistency sufficient enough to get us out of this League. They are good enough, now get out there and show the world. Alloa Athletic play Montrose on the same night. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Match/Ticket/Bus £20/Info Stenhousemuir KDM Alloa @ Home ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Let's name and shame them. Here's the guys that put paid to our aspirations in the Scottish Cup this season. A team with enough talent to run away with League1 but unable to beat the Spartans. Last time out Inverness fell to their worst Scottish Cup result ever as Spartans dug deep to take the tie to penalties against a gutless Caley Jags. They confirmed their inability to score with the first two penalties being saved by MotM Paddy Martin and we never recovered from that going down 4-2 in the shoot-out after 120 minutes without a goal. Recent League form is no better with only one point from our last three games scoring just one goal whilst conceding three. The only highlight of late was ironically a penalty shoot-out over Partick Thistle in the KDM Trophy after an encouraging 3-3 draw. That was probably our downfall four days later at Ainslie Park. This fixture was carried over from November due to the postponed Scottish Cup schedules against Tranent getting in the way, and they were delayed three times due to a waterlogged pitch. Inverness supporters should purchase tickets in Sections G & H. One of our better displays this season was the fixture at the Caledonian Stadium where we beat East Fife 4-1 at the end of September. Fifers Swamped in Second Half Blitz: The rain arrived just in time for kick-off in the Highlands after a few days of late Summer sun. The fifers were in no mood to be turned over by an on form Inverness and made life difficult for their hosts. However, David Wotherspoon headed the Caley Jags in front after seventeen minutes. Nathan Austin levelled just before the interval but Wotherspoon scored his second after an hour and a deflected effort by Alfie Stewart added a third. 99 bonk as Alfie Bavidge completed the scoring in the 99th minute. That win put Inverness top of the table for now. Full Time: 4-1 The Fifers squad that went out of the KDM Trophy 3-0 to Arbroath on 13th of January. Rollo was in goal for that one and Tommy Goss has since returned to Annan Athletic after being on loan at Bayview. There's a few changes in that side to the one that normally is on League duty. Nathan Austin Their last League1 fixture was that 5-0 drubbing from Stenhousemuir at Ochilview. Prior to that they had been beaten 1-0 by Kelty Hearts and Peterhead. East Fife had no game last weekend as their Cup journey was ended at the end of November by Arbroath (2-0), who also ended the Fifers involvement in the KDM Trophy a week ago by 3-0. 🏆William Hill League 1 🆚Inverness Caledonian Thistle 🏟MGM Timber Bayview Stadium 📅Tuesday 20th January 2026 🕒7:45PM KO 🎟️Tickets 📺Live stream available worldwide 👀 ➡️ https://eftv.info Ticket Prices: Adults: £20 Concessions: £16 Under 16s: £5 East Fife Community FC members (U16): Free Inverness supporters should purchase tickets in Sections G & H.
