One of Fife Flyers or Dundee Stars will make their first-ever Viaplay Challenge Cup Semi-Final appearance, but who gets there will depends solely on the outcome of tonight's Quarter-Final second leg in Kirkcaldy.
The sides tied 4-4 in the first leg a week ago, a game which saw the Starts twice comes from two down against a short-benched Flyers side. In the four previous competitive meetings this season, Dundee hold a 3-1 edge in wins and have already recorded two victories at the Fife Ice Arena since September.
Since the teams played last week, the Flyers were beaten at home by both Guildford and Sheffield, while Dundee narrowly lost in Belfast.
With the score already tied on aggregate from the first leg, tonight's game will follow the regular Elite League overtime and shootout rules if it's still level after 60 minutes. For clarity, there is no 'away goals' rule.
