Luke was lucky enough to be drawn out of a hat to be the mascot for Sunday at Hampden.

The club bought him a new strip for the big day to ensure he looked the part. So, we got a very special deliveryman to surprise him with his new strip.

Manager Stuart Kettlewell has confirmed vice-captain Stephen O’Donnell will miss the semi-final of the Premier Sports Cup on Sunday, and that Lennon Miller will be captain on the day. 

The Motherwell boss speaks about Rangers and the narrative around their poor run of form. Kettlewell isn’t buying into that narrative and knows his side will need to be at their very best if we are to reach to the final.

Motherwell travel to the national stadium on Sunday 3 November to take on Rangers for a spot in the Premier Sports Cup final.

Motherwell’s Fortunes

It was the perfect preparation for the Steelmen going into this match. A 2-1 win at Tannadice, thanks to a Tawanda Maswanhise double, meant it was seven wins out off 11 away match in the Premiership for Stuart Kettlewell’s side.

That result lifted Motherwell to fourth in the table on 16 points.

Defeating Edinburgh City, Clyde, Kilmarnock and Dundee United to reach this stage, it’s a first semi-final in six years for the club.

Opposition Report

Rangers are three points ahead of Motherwell in the league standings. Rangers were defeated 2-1 in their last match against Aberdeen on Wednesday night at Pittodrie.

It’s three wins and three loses in their last six outings, with Rangers overcoming St Johnstone and Dundee to reach the last four of this competition.

Cyriel Dessers remains the top scorer for Rangers in all competitions, with seven goals, however Czech Republic international Vaclav Cerny has found the net on six occasions since arriving in the summer, with five of those goals coming in October.

It’s a huge week for Motherwell Football Club, with the opportunity to reach the Premier Sports Cup final fast approaching. But first, a trip to Dundee came on Wednesday night.

With fourth against fifth, the game started off a tight contest. Chances were few and far between, but Tawanda Maswanhise soon put stop to that, finishing from Dan Casey’s header across goal.

Stephen O’Donnell had to withdraw in the first-half, which started a string of Dundee United chances. Aston Oxborough stood strong but eventually the pressure took it’s toll and the hosts were level.

Motherwell started well in the second-half and soon, it was Maswanhise who pounced on a Dundee United error to win the game and send the travelling support down the road full of optimism for Sunday’s glamour tie.

Lennon Miller has been named in the latest Scotland Under 19 squad. 

The 18-year-old has been an integral part of Stuart Kettlewell’s side as well as Scotland’s Under 21s, however with no games for Scott Gemmill’s youngsters, Neil McFarlane has called upon the midfielder’s services.

Scotland play three Under-19 European Championship qualifiers, taking on Wales, Liechtenstein and France with the aim of progressing to the Elite Round in March.

Motherwell leapfrogged Dundee United into fourth place in the William Hill Premiership with a battling 1-2 win at Tannadice.

Zimbabwean midfielder Tawanda Maswanhise proved to be the hero as his two goals either side of half-time earned the Steelmen a confidence inspiring win ahead of Sunday’s semi-final.

Stuart Kettlewell made three changes to the side that lost to Dundee with Steve Seddon, Tawanda Maswanhise and Dan Casey replacing Andy Halliday, Davor Zdravkovski and the suspended Liam Gordon.

After an even opening 20 minutes, the visitors took the lead as Maswanhise claimed his first in claret and amber.

Lennon Miller’s deep free-kick was headed across goal by Dan Casey and the Zimbabwean cooly picked his spot past Walton. There were question marks over Apostolos Stamatelopoulos’ involvement in the as the Aussie possibly strayed into an offside position as he ushered the ball into the net but VAR found no fault and the goal stood.

Motherwell were dealt a blow as captain Stephen O’Donnell hobbled off on the half-hour mark after an innocuous looking clearance. The defender left the pitch, clearly in pain and was replaced by Shane Blaney who made his first appearance since the first league game of the season back in August.

The reshuffle of the defence perhaps played a part in the equaliser as Kristjian Trapanovski found plenty of space down the Motherwell right and his pinpoint cross found Sam Dalby who rose unmarked and headed past Oxborough.

There wasn’t much between the sides as the game grew deeper into the second half with a feeling of the next goal would be the winner, such was the lack of clear cut chances.

Thankfully it was the Steelmen who took their chance as a mistake from Adegboyega presented the busy Maswanhise with a great chance. Bearing down on the goal the winger kept his cool and dinked the ball over Jack Walton and into the United net.

Motherwell’s defence largely held firm, limiting the hosts to very little, and eventually securing a vital three points to end a run of two defeats and tee up a big game on Sunday at Hampden.

Stuart Kettlewell gives his thoughts as his side leapfrog Dundee United into fourth place.

A Tawanda Maswanhise double was enough to earn a 1-2 win for the Steelmen at Tannadice.

Ewan Wilson is feeling great after his dedication to fitness and nutrition in the summer. The young full-back has cemented his spot in the side and is looking to continue what he has started. 

Wilson remains level-headed ahead of a massive week in his career.
