Match Preview
Welcome poser for Irons Winger Stevie Murray is available after a ban and Grant Anderson is expected to shake off a knock leaving Stenhousemuir manager David Irons with a welcome selection poser. That leaves Irons, whose side are rock-bottom, with a fully-fit squad to choose from. He said: "It is a nice problem to have and everyone is confident after a massive win for us at the weekend. "We are still giving away some bad goals but we are getting better at defending and we have plenty of optimism for the games ahead." Despite their success at the weekend, Irons is demanding that there be no slacking. He added: "We have 16 cup finals between now and the end of the season." Ayr have Willie Easton banned and injury doubts over Chris Smith (head knock) and Ryan McCann for the clash. Long-term victims Bobby Donnelly and Dean Keenan remain sidelined. A win for The Honest Men would consolidate their place in the promotion play-off pack, and manager Brian Reid is looking for consistency from his men after losing heavily to relegation-threatened East Fife last Wednesday and then defeating promotion rivals Brechin at the weekend. Reid said: "Our form had dipped but we looked much more like ourselves against Brechin. We need to achieve that level of performance again as Stenhousemuir will be looking for a win for their own purposes."

Match Report
Stenhousemuir stun high-flying Ayr Stenhousemuir moved off the foot of the Division Two table after coming from a goal down to record a 3-1 win over play-off contenders Ayr at Ochilview Park. Stuart Bannigan gave the visitors the lead after just five minutes with a fine strike from 12 yards, but Scott Dalziel pulled Stenhousemuir level in the 36th minute with a low drive from 20 yards. Jordan Smith headed Sean Dickson's right-wing cross past David Crawford and into the bottom corner in the 53rd minute to put his side in front. Ayr struggled to assert their authority on the game as the hosts looked to secure their second win in a row. And Alex Williams calmly slotted his side's third from the penalty spot after Ebbie Malone had fouled Dalziel inside the box in the 64th minute.
