McDougall back for Clyde

Clyde welcome Steven McDougall back from a ban as they host an Elgin side that claimed a 2-0 win against them recently.

Paul Slane is expected to return to action after illness but the injured Ged Traynor (knee), Scott Ferguson (knee) and Scott McLaughlin (arm) all miss out.

Manager Barry Ferguson, who is keen to make a loan signing before kick-off, said: "The last couple of games have brought disappointing results. We have lost bad goals but we can bounce back starting against Elgin.

"We are low on numbers but if we can win this game we will climb the table and still be involved in the play-off chase."

Elgin manager Jim Weir will decide his team after fitness tests are carried out on Jamie Duff, Ally Gilchrist and Brian Cameron.

The trio are carrying injuries following the midweek defeat to East Stirling.

Mark Nicolson is expected to miss out with a hamstring injury and Weir said: "We have lost our last two games after being ahead and then losing goals before half-time and then right at the end of the game.

"That is disappointing but more disappointing is the number of chances that we missed in both games. Hopefully we can be more clinical against Clyde and establish a lead good enough to see the game out."
