Match Preview

Cowdenbeath close in on title Cowdenbeath will be crowned champions of the Second Division if they defeat Forfar, but they will be without their suspended top goalscorer Lewis Coult. Defender David Cowan also looks set to miss out with a hamstring problem, but Dean Brett and Jon Robertson are both expected to shake off knocks to feature. Kenny Adamson is included again in player-manager Colin Cameron's plans after a ban. Cameron said: "Our build up has been the same for any game and we will treat the 90 minutes as a normal game. It will be a tough encounter as Forfar have their own reasons for wanting to win this one but if the players believe in themselves we can come out winners." Forfar will be without Iain Campbell as the defender is serving a one-game ban. However, manager Dick Campbell otherwise has a fully-fit squad at his disposal. The Station Park boss is determined to ruin Cowdenbeath's title party despite living nearby, as he explained: "You can see Central Park from my house but I want to ensure that any champagne they have stays on ice. "We need points for our own purposes as we face a fight to stay in this league. We beat Arbroath last Saturday and if we play like we did in that game again we can take the three points. "We are in with a good chance as we have beaten Cowdenbeath before this season and will take confidence from that."
