Match Preview
Duo out for Albion Stirling Albion goalkeeper Callum Reidford is still missing and will be joined on the sidelines by suspended captain Ross Forsyth for the crucial home clash with Cowdenbeath. Scott Buist is a doubt but Martyn Corrigan, who has been missing since before Christmas with an ankle knock, could make his return on the Albion bench. The importance of the game is not lost on manager Jocky Scott, who said: "This is a big game in a big week for us that began when we drew with Ross County. "We need a wee break in front of goal and if we get that I am sure we will convert one point into three. We never got a break against County so we are due one in this game." Cowdenbeath trio Joe Mbu, John Armstrong and Lee Makel are all facing fitness tests. Dene Droudge and Danny Mackay remain sidelined and manager Jimmy Nicholl has drafted a trialist in as cover should any of the three players not make it. Nicholl said: "It will be lunchtime before we know what the team will be but I have an experienced player standing by to feature if required. "A win for us would be a terrific result and would have a really positive effect on how we face the busy schedule of games coming up. "We have beaten them twice before but that will count for nothing.

Match Report
Beath bounce back for stunning win Cowdenbeath fought back from three goals down to beat 10-man Stirling 4-3 in thrilling clash. Sean Welsh opened the scoring for bottom-of-the-table Stirling in the 40th-minute, slamming home a cross from Jonathan Brown. Michael Mullen's second-half brace put the hosts in total control. His first was an 18-yard drive after good work from Martyn Corrigan, and the second a neat finish from close in from a Gordon Smith pass. Mark Ramsay pulled one back for Cowdenbeath in the 77th minute with a fine strike from 30 yards before Stirling defender Scott Buist was dismissed for a professional foul in the 81st minute. Ramsay then netted his second from the resulting penalty, Archie Campbell levelled the scores in the 89th minute with a header in the box, and Greg Stewart secured all three points in injury time with a left-footed drive from 12 yards.
