Stranraer v Arbroath Live




Stranraer pay the price for cup win Stranraer's fine win over Stenhousemuir in the Scottish Cup in midweek came at a price as they could be without three player against Arbroath. Defender Paul Murphy, midfielder Sean Winter and striker Michael Moore all look set to miss out after picking up injuries against the Warriors. Stair Park boss Keith Knox said: "We have to forget all about the Scottish Cup and get back to concentrating on the league affairs as that is our bread and butter. "This is a really, really important game against a good footballing side. However, we have had good results against them already this season so we can go into the game with confidence." Alan Rattray will be missing from the Arbroath squad for the trip. The defender has been ruled out through injury as Arbroath attempt to bounce back from their surprise 5-3 defeat by East Stirling in midweek. Gayfield boss Paul Sheerin said: "I will put the game on Tuesday down to being a bad day at the office and move on as we had been doing really well recently. "This is a massive game and after missing one opportunity to move to the top of the table we are really determined not to miss a second one. "Stranraer will be confident after beating Stenhousemuir in the cup so we will have to play really well to get the three points."
