Match Preview
Injury crisis for Rovers ahead of derby Raith will be without the suspended Stephen Simmons and Dougie Hill as well as the injured pair of Laurie Ellis and Iain Williamson for the visit of local rivals Cowdenbeath. Stark's Park boss John McGlynn has left nothing to chance as he explained: "I went to watch Cowdenbeath on Tuesday night against Ross County and they put on a very committed display in fairly horrific weather conditions. "They battled for their win then and they will battle for everything here as they need the three points just as much as we do. "Jimmy Nicholl has done a terrific job with his team and they will be very hard but very respected opponents." Cowdenbeath will again be without Joe Mbu, John Armstrong, Bob Malcolm and Colin Cameron as they look to climb into eighth place. Blue Brazil boss Jimmy Nicholl has promised to attack his title-chasing Fife rivals saying: "This should be a cracking game and one where the team lower in the table may be looking to sit in, keep things tight and look for a point, but we are not aiming to do that." "We will go and have a go like we did that last time we were there and were unlucky to go down 2-1. "We defended stoutly against Ross County in midweek and we will need to defend stoutly at times in this game."

Match Report
Rovers miss out on top spot Raith missed the chance to overtake Dunfermline at the top of the First Division after they could only manage a 2-2 draw at home to relegation-threatened Cowdenbeath. After Rovers had come close in the first half through Gregory Tade and Iain Davidson, it was the Blue Brazil who took the lead 10 minutes into the second half. Greg Stewart found the bottom corner from just inside the penalty area. Raith levelled five minutes later through Grant Murray's close-range header from a Scott McBride corner but Stewart looked to have won it for Cowdenbeath as he easily converted after 70 minutes. But Mark Campbell's 12-yard effort in the 89th minute levelled to leave Raith one point behind the Pars with four games to go.
