Mo Yacub missing for Cowdenbeath with concussion

Cowdenbeath are again without Mo Yacub for the Ladbrokes Championship play-off semi-final second leg with Queen's Park due to concussion as they look to hit back against the Spiders.

The Blue Brazil are on the brink of relegation after going down 2-0 in the first leg.

Declan Byrne is available after a recent head knock but Kyle Miller is a doubt after being injured in the first leg at Hampden and Jamie Sneddon remains out with a thigh injury.

Manager Colin Nish said: "We have to be a lot better in attack than we were the other night if we are to get back into things. We never threatened Queen's Park enough and that has to change."

Queen's Park are again without the long-term injured trio of Tony Quinn (hip), Jamie McKernon (broken foot) and Kenny Mackay (thigh) as they look to reach the play-off final for a second year running.

Head coach Gus MacPherson said: "We put in a very committed performance in the first leg and the only disappointment is that we did not convert more of the chances that we made.

"The players showed a lot of focus to get us the two goal advantage that we have. We will need a similar level of focus to get us through at what is a very difficult venue to play at."
