Match Preview
Bain ready to step in for Elgin On-loan Aberdeen goalkeeper Scott Bain will be available for selection as Elgin look to pick up their first points of the season against undefeated Stranraer. Borough Briggs boss Ross Jack was unable to pick Bain in the midweek 4-0 Co-operative Insurance Cup defeat to Hearts after the Dons refused permission. Defender David Niven is out with a foot injury, but defender Mark Nicolson is free to start his league season after suspension. Jack is hoping that his team's fortunes are set to change. "We were desperately unlucky against East Stirling last week where we missed chance after chance and they had a penalty given against us when they had a player who was miles offside," he said. "Hopefully we will get an appropriate reward in this game." Stranraer make the longest trek in Scottish league football on Saturday with manager Keith Knox having a full squad to choose from. He said, "Borough Briggs is a difficult place to go to if you do not show the right attitude. "You have to start the game well and impose yourself on Elgin. That will be our approach and whilst some people complain about the trip I prefer just to get on with it and enjoy the experience. "You have time to prepare well and we will stop and have a pre-match meal which is something we do not do often these days. The drive home is always a good one if you have won."

Match Report
Narrow win for Stranraer Stranraer recorded a narrow 2-1 victory over Elgin to leave the home side floundering at the bottom of the table. Elgin spurned the chance to open the scoring in the 21st minute when Sean Winter fouled Craig Gunn in the box. Gunn's penalty came crashing back off the left-hand post. Stranraer made them pay in the 33rd minute as Romauld Bouadji slotted his shot into the right-hand corner from six yards from Scott Agnew's cross. Winter made amends for his earlier mishap by providing a cross from the right for Craig Malcolm, who planted his header into the bottom of the net from 12 yards. Elgin did manage to grab a consolation goal in the 90th minute as Paul Millar scored with a neat header but it was too little, too late.
