Match Preview
Fife low on numbers East Fife boss Steve Crawford could be without four players for the visit of Forfar. John Ovenstone is ruled out because of a head injury, with on-loan Falkirk player Stewart Murdoch doubtful because of neck injury. Lloyd Young along with David Muir are both carrying knocks as well and are doubtful. However, there was some good news as Stevie Campbell has shaken off a knock to be included. Crawford said: "Stewart has not been training with Falkirk this week so it does not look good for him. "Lloyd and David could not train with us on Thursday but they are improving so I would rate them as having a slight chance but they will not play if they are not right as we cannot carry passengers against Forfar." Forfar are again without defenders Paul Lunan and Stephen Tulloch. Both men are missing through injury and missed last weekend's 4-1 in at Ayr, with manager Dick Campbell was promising the same again side. Campbell said, "I was going to go with the same pool of players anyway as I though they were excellent in our win last week. "They played some excellent football and whilst we may have been awarded four penalties we more than deserved our win with our attacking play." Last Saturday's win ended a run of three successive defeats for the Loons and Campbell is now looking for a run of wins, adding: "The same performance and the same result will do Forfar fine from this game."

Match Report
Campbell at the double in Forfar win A Ross Campbell brace secured the three points for Forfar in an impressive 3-1 win at East Fife. Forfar edged the first half, with Campbell opening the scoring with a neat strike from the edge of the area just before the interval. Despite conceding close to half-time it was the home side that came out flying at the start of the second half, and East Fife were rewarded for their pressure. Robert Linn equalised after 53 minutes with a close-range finish from Michael Deland's long pass. The visitors responded well and regained the lead just seven minutes later when sub Martyn Fotheringham finished off Bryan Deasley's cross. Campbell then completed his contribution with the killer blow after 70 minutes, converting Scott Allan's left-wing cross with a powerful header.
