Livingston vs Stenhousemuir preview - Top host bottom at Almondvale



I have a say

Posted Saturday, February 19, 2011 by PA

Leaders Livingston host bottom side Stenhousemuir boosted by the return of Craig Barr.

The defender has now completed his suspension and make his comeback to the squad that defeated Airdrie in midweek.

However midfielder Keaghan Jacobs is doubtful with a knock and defender Cameron MacDonald remains out with a hamstring injury.

The Lions have won five games in a row to top the table by nine points and manager Gary Bollan has told his players he wants no let up.

He said: "We have a platform to build on now for the rest of the season and I want us to make the most of it. The boys did well in midweek and we have to reach those heights again as Stenhousemuir will come here and fight for everything."

Suspended winger Stevie Murray is the only absentee for Stenhousemuir.

Murray is banned for the clash following his sending off last weekend.

David Irons' men will need to put the frustration of their late midweek postponement at Peterhead behind them if they are to take anything from the encounter.

Ochilview boss David Irons said: "Everybody was really frustrated by the late call off, however it was the right decision.

"Hopefully we can use that frustration positively against Livingston as it will be a really tough game as they are flying at moment.

"They have a strong squad but I am looking for my boys to rise to the challenge and show everyone they can play a bit as well."
