Airdrie captain Adam Frizzell says his side have more than matched Raith Rovers as they took two wins and a draw from three clashes this season.Frizzell notched up his 101st Airdrie appearance as a Nikolay Todorov header gave Airdrie a second 1-0 win over the Championship leaders at New Broomfield, with a 1-1 draw in Kirkcaldy back in November.And the former Kilmarnock hero says three wins on the bounce have Airdrie flying right now as they head to Dunfermline next weekend.“We’ve more than matched them in the three games we’ve played, and we’ve had positive results in all of them, to be fair,” said Frizzell.“I know what they possess and to go toe-to-toe with them is a good feat, and we can only take positivity from them.“It’s probably frustrating on our part that they’re so far ahead of us, in terms of points total, because we feel that with the wee sticky patch we had we’ve lost so much ground.“But I’m delighted.

I think they’re going through their wee sticky patch, again we know what they possess because we had them last season and they’re a good quality side.“We’ll go and try to take the game to them, and look to get a positive
