Nathan Austin scored twice as East Fife came from behind to beat Linlithgow Rose 3-1 in the League Cup, setting up a meeting with St. Johnstone on 25 July.

Linlithgow Rose struck early when James Berry scored from Adam McGowan's assist in the second minute, but the visitors could not build on that lead. East Fife took control in the second half as Nathan Austin equalised in the 57th minute, then put his side ahead ten minutes later from David Wilson's pass. Patrick Slattery sealed the win in the 83rd minute after Jack Healy's assist, with Linlithgow Rose's frustration shown in yellow cards for Greg Skinner, James Berry and Jordan Tosh.

Despite the scoreline, Linlithgow Rose controlled 56% of possession to East Fife's 44% and earned only three corners to the home side's seven, suggesting they had the better of the territorial battle but lacked cutting edge. Nathan Austin was the standout with a rating of 8.63, scoring twice as a forward. CheckLive's model clearly favoured Linlithgow Rose, but the result proved it wrong, though the live signals correctly backed East Fife at 2.88. East Fife now face St. Johnstone.
