Craigie and Harp head for the Kingdom

LAST week’s defeat by Kinnoull in the North League was a big setback for East Craigie.

However, if they can win their last three matches, they can still finish third.

They make the trip to Lochore and, having already beaten the Fifers 3-1 this season, should be confident about getting back to winning ways.

Lochee Harp are also in Fife and will be on a mission at Newburgh where they will be out to avenge a 4-1 defeat when the sides met at Beechwood.

Manager Michael Gormley will be without keeper Darren Brown, who is unavailable.

Mark Kelly and Graeme Dailly are injured, while Connaire Connelly is suspended.

On the plus side, Gordon Ramsay and James Cochrane return and Gormley will again include a couple of trialists.

Bottom-of-the-table Forfar Albion have Scone Thistle as guests for what is their final home game of the campaign.

Thistle expect to have a fullstrength squad, while the hosts’ Ross McCleary is suspended.

Undefeated in their last 11 games, Luncarty face a tough task if they are to extend that at home to promotion contenders Thornton.

Brechin Vics welcome Blairgowrie boosted by last week’s 3-1 at Arbroath Vics, a result that delighted manager Wayne Morrison, who anticipates having the same squad available.

Blair boss Billy Mackay delays naming a squad.
