No Millar time for East Fife

Goalkeeper Jordan Millar is out for East Fife with an ankle injury while Caolan McAleer has a knee problem.

Kevin Smith is doubt with a knee injury but Allan Walker is available after a ban.

Player/ manager Gary Naysmith said: "We have found a bit of form and hopefully that continues. We did well at Montrose particularly in the second half but this will be a real test for us as Barry Ferguson has assembled a really strong squad.

"They will take confidence from beating Albion Rovers last weekend but despite that I want us to open up a five point gap on them."

The Bully Wee miss striker Scott McManus who suffered a knee injury in the 2-0 success over Albion Rovers last weekend however manager Barry Ferguson has again included Mark Roberts and Paul Slane as trialists.

Ferguson said: "The performance in our last game was much more of the standard and style that I am after. We reshaped the squad last month and are seeing benefits already, however East Fife can say exactly the same as they are on a good run as well.

"This will be a really competitive game as the influence of a strong character like Gary Naysmith on his team is being seen."
