Match Preview

Double boost for Queens Defender David MacGregor is added to the Stranraer squad for the visit of Queen`s Park. MacGregor missed the 9-0 hammering of Wigtown & Bladnoch in the Scottish Cup last weekend. Keith Knox's side have the chance to go top if they see off the Spiders. Following last weekend`s goal glut, Knox said: "Craig Malcolm ended a barren spell and Martin Grehan grabbed his first two for the club so the strikers are on a high going into this game." He added: "As well as going to the top of the league we also want to pay Queen's Park back for a 2-0 defeat at their place earlier in the season." Goalkeeper Adam Strain and winger David Murray are added to the Queen`s Park squad. The duo missed the 3-0 Scottish Cup win at Huntly last weekend. However, Steven Baillie, Giuseppe Capuano, Michael O'Hara, and Tony Quinn all remain out through injury for the Hampden side. Queen's Park head into the game looking to make it four wins in a row. Head coach Gardner Speirs said: "We are building up a bit of momentum and it would be great to keep that going with a win at Stranraer. "We have been winning with a bit of style and keeping that going would be great, but we know that it will be tough as Stranraer have plenty of reasons to win this game as well."

Match Report

Watt a winner from Ian Ian Watt's last-gasp strike gave Queen's Park a thrilling 3-2 win at Stranraer. The visitors took the lead when Jamie Longworth headed home Martin McBride's corner after 10 minutes. Stranraer responded well as Craig Malcolm broke down the left before squaring to Martin Grehan for a simple finish. Roles were reversed five minutes later, with Grehan setting up Malcolm from the right for the striker to rifle into the roof of the net. Substitute Craig Smith then grabbed Queen's Park's equaliser with a diving header that diverted Paul Stewart's wayward shot into the net. The match was settled with two minutes left as Watt found himself perfectly positioned to slot home David Murray's cross and secure Queen's Park's victory.
