Match Preview
Scott eyeing three crucial points Stirling goalkeeper Callum Reidford has returned to training after nearly two months out with a double fracture of his jaw, but the visit of Queen of the South may come too soon for him. Boss Jocky Scott remains without injured defenders Jonathan Brown and Greig MacDonald, while midfielder Chris Aitken is struggling with a calf strain. Scott, whose side are bottom of the league, is determined to beat the drop. He said: "A win would give us a platform to get back into things at the bottom and with 24 points still to play for we need to go out and fight for everyone. "We need to keep things tight at the back and if we do that we have players that can get goals." Albion will be looking for their first league win since October. Queen of the South boss Kenny Brannigan is hoping that Bob Harris and Derek Holmes will be fit enough to play after missing out against the same opposition at the weekend. Rocco Quinn and Allan Johnston will definitely miss the clash with injury. Goalkeeper David Hutton looks likely to stay on the bench because of a groin problem with Brannigan taking nothing for granted despite winning 4-1 against Stirling last time out. Brannigan said, "The boys had to work really hard for that win and we need to do the same again at their place. "Stirling are not going to lie down and give us the points so we need to go and battle for them all over again." The Doonhamers will be looking to edge closer to a top-three finish.

Match Report
Queens make it a double Queen of the South secured their second win over rock-bottom Stirling in four days after emerging 2-0 victors at the Doubletree Dunblane Stadium The South, who won 4-1 at home to Albion on Saturday, went ahead after four minutes, Daniel Orsi netting his first senior goal from 18 yards. Orsi's joy was shortlived, however, as he was forced off injured 19 minutes in. But his loss did not stop the away side's progress as David Lilley made it 2-0 in first-half injury-time, converting from close range. The best chance of an uneventful second half fell to Stirling's Gordon Smith, who had headed straight at away keeper Rod McKenzie in the first half, but he nodded wide after 79 minutes.
