McDonald and McAllister available

Peterhead will be at full strength for the visit of Dunfermline with Gary McDonald and Rory McAllister both back in the fold.

The pair were absent from the 2-1 defeat to leaders Stranraer, with McDonald missing through work commitments and McAllister suffering from a back injury.

Manager Jim McInally said: "We did really well for the first hour against the league leaders however we were punished for not taking our chances. Having Gary and Rory back will help us in that department.

"Hopefully we will be far more clinical against Dunfermline as it is a must win game for both teams in terms of going for a play-off place. We want to be the team that gets the three points."

Dunfermline welcome back Lewis Martin, who missed the 4-0 defeat to Morton through international duty.

Lewis Allan will not be available as he has returned to Hibernian at the end of his loan spell, while Ryan Wallace remains sidelined with a pelvic injury.

Manager John Potter believes his side must pick up three points if they are to be involved in the play-off race.

He said: "We have slipped five points behind Brechin with five games to go so we have to win at Peterhead to get back into the chase. There is still plenty to fight for and we will keep on fighting."
