The game will be the third time that a Pars league game has been broadcast live on BBC Alba this season after they screened the 4-3 and 1-0 victories over St Mirren in September and November respectively.
Athletic were beaten 2-1 in Leith on the second weekend of the season despite Gavin Reilly netting a second half equaliser, while Neil Lennon's side overturned a 1-0 half-time deficit to triumph 3-1 in the return at East End Park in October.
