Haws look to chalk up elusive victory

Hill of Beath have been struggling recently and have won just two games in the league since the end of August.

Last weekend saw the Fife side go down 2-0 at Carnoustie and manager Bobby Wilson will be looking for a response from his squad at home to Linlithgow Rose today.

Jeanfield Swifts face an in-form Dundonald, who are on a run of three games without defeat.

The Perth side need to start picking up points urgently.

Last weekend’s game against Newtongrange fell foul of the weather, giving any lingering niggles an extra week to heal so Ross Gunnion should have a full squad to choose from.

Bluebell have brought in Sam Buchan from St Andrews United, joining Craig Wedderburn, Barry Sibanda and Ricky Patrick in making the switch.

Paul Quinn is the only absentee for the trip with Bluebell looking to add to their seven points from the last three games.

Camelon took care of Broughty Athletic last weekend in emphatic fashion and they once again face a Dundee club, this time Lochee United at Thomson Park.

George Shields’ United are on a run of one win in six and if they are to avoid being dragged into the battle at the wrong end of the table, they need to start picking up points.

Keeper Mark Fotheringham is a major doubt for the hosts but Shields is able to welcome back Greg Kirk and Phil Hagen from injury.

A further blow is that the injury that has kept Connor Birse out looks like being a long-term problem.

Kelty Hearts continue their relentless race to the title at Newtongrange Star.

Hearts seem to be in a hurry in games and have won the last three, all clinched before half-time.

Hearts boss Tom Courts expects to have a full squad to choose from for the game.
