Match Preview
Makel confined to dugout Cowdenbeath entertain Albion at Central Park and manager Colin Cameron will be forced to do without assistant player-manager Lee Makel due to injury. Makel's absence adds to an already-large Blue Brazil injury list, with Mark Ramsay, Danny Mackay and Dene Droudge, who all have knee injuries, also unavailable. Cameron said: "I am looking for us to build on last week's 4-0 success at Dumbarton, which was particularly pleasing as it was the first time we kept a clean sheet this season. "Albion Rovers played well against Stenhousemuir last Saturday and this will be a far from easy three points to pick up. "The key to this one is to start as well as we did at Dumbarton and, if we do, I am sure we will be more than okay." Albion welcome back Ryan McStay for their trip. McStay has been suspended recently and will almost certainly go straight back into the starting line-up against the Blue Brazil. That means Rovers head into the encounter on the back of a double boost given that fit-again player-assistant manager Todd Lumsden in also set to return to the XI. Barry Russell has returned to training following a recent appendix operation and may travel, but captain Ciaran Donnelly misses out through suspension. Joseph Acquah has a hamstring strain and Chris Boyle is suffering from a neck injury, although both should be fit. Coatbridge boss Paul Martin said: "If Barry, Joseph and Chris are all passed fit, I have options for selection for the first time this season, which is great. It is a good problem to have against a Cowdenbeath side that is playing well."

Match Report
Naismith at the double Two goals from Cowdenbeath midfielder Kal Naismith earned his side all three points in a 2-1 win over Albion at Central Park. Naismith's first goal came after 21 minutes, the Rangers loanee breaking the deadlock with a left-footed effort after good work from Thomas O'Brien on the left wing. The 19-year-old then doubled the lead for Colin Cameron's side eight minutes before half-time from the penalty spot. That came after Naismith had been upended by Albion midfielder Christopher Boyle inside the area. Albion came back into the game seven minutes before the full-time whistle thanks to Scott Chaplain's left-footed effort but the striker was then dismissed for violent conduct. That scuppered their chances of finding a leveller and allowed Cowdenbeath to stay second in the Irn-Bru Scottish Second Division table.
