Everton set to face Dundee in pre-season friendly

Scottish trip for Roberto Martinez's men



EVERTON are set to make their first visit to Dens Park for more than a century, with a pre-season friendly lined up against Dundee FC this summer.

The Dundee Evening Telegraph has reported that the Royal Blues are likely to be facing the Dark Blues on Tuesday, July 28 (kick-off 7.45pm) as one of three potential friendlies during a Scottish training camp.

Everton have already scheduled two fixtures in Singapore on July 15 and 18 but have yet to confirm the Scottish friendly.

They did entertain Dundee in a friendly match during the 1975/76 season which ended 3-3.
