Match Preview
Moore missing for hosts Stranraer are without Michael Moore as they host Alloa in their first Third Division game of the season. The striker is absent due to a calf injury with manager Keith Knox lamenting his absence. Knox said: "Michael gives you 100% effort and that's all you can ask for from players. "He never gives opposing defences a moments peace and we will miss him against an Alloa side that look really strong on paper. "From what I have heard they pass the ball really well but have lacked a cutting edge and I certainly don't want them to find one here. "They will have to handle the pressure of being one of the favourites for promotion but I am looking forward to seeing what we can do against them." Paul Hartley leads Alloa in a league match for the first time but he will be without striker Craig Campbell through suspension. Hartley also has doubts over Darren Young and Mark McCullagh, but the former Scotland internationalist cannot wait to get going in the race for promotion. Hartley said: "It will be a tough game but we are well prepared for it. "We have been retaining the ball well but let in disappointing goals from set pieces against Morton. "Hopefully we have that out of our systems now as the cups are over and the league is crucial. If we turn our possession into goals we will do more than okay."

Match Report
Cawley earns Alloa win Kevin Cawley scored with five minutes remaining as 10-man Alloa came from behind to beat Stranraer 3-2. Alloa initially took the lead in the 2nd minute through Ryan McCord's placed penalty after Cawley was fouled by Stranraer goalkeeper David Mitchell. The home side hit back after 17 minutes when Christopher Aitken swept home Craig Malcolm's headed pass from close range. They went in front 10 minutes before the break when Sean Winter powerfully headed home from Nathan Shepherd's cross. But Alloa hit back with a header of their own, when Ross McCord's pinpoint cross was nodded in by Ben Gordon on the hour mark. They faced an uphill task five minutes later when Ryan Caddis was given a straight red card for a foul on Shepherd, who had to be substituted minutes after the challenge. Despite their numerical disadvantage, Alloa snatched the points late on when Cawley collected the ball on the left of the area and smashed the ball into the bottom corner.
