LEAGUE NEWCOMERS STRATHSPEY THISTLE ARE GOING IN SEARCH OF THEIR FIRST HIGHLAND LEAGUE WIN
Published:
HUNTLY will go joint top of the Highland League today if they beat Turriff United at Christie Park.
Dave McGinlay’s side won 7-1 at Clach last weekend and will be confident against a United side which has lost its last five matches.
The Black and Golds have no fresh injury worries while Rhys Fyfe will continue in goal for United.
A second successive win is the aim for Formartine United when Brora Rangers visit North Lodge Park.
Formartine manager John Gardiner will be without the services of defender Darren McGuiness who still has a knee injury while Stuart Cumming is suspended.
Brora have no new injury worries.
Forres Mechanics, one of the form teams in the league, go in search of their fifth victory in a row when Rothes visit Mosset Park.
Fraser Bremner is a doubt for the Can-Cans while Kevin Shortreed returns from suspension for Rothes.
Graeme Bain is absent due to work commitments.
Fraserburgh try to build on their win at Inverurie when Clach visit Bellslea Park.
Broch manager Charlie Duncan is without Michael Stephen for the game but Steven Main may be available to return to action.
David Matheson is suspended for the Lilywhites while Duncan Jones and Blair Lawrie are unavailable due to work commitments.
The bragging rights in the Charlesworth household are up for grabs as Lossiemouth manager Charlie pits his side against Buckie Thistle, who have his son and forward Martin on their books.
Lossie are without Martin McMullan, Kevin Flett and Steven Sim who are all suspended.
Buckie manager Gregg Carrol will have to do without Neil Davidson, Paul Napier and Aaron Lepkowski for the game but Ian Murray has returned from offshore and recent signing Hamish Munro is in contention to make his debut.
Strathspey Thistle go in search of their first Highland League win when Fort William visit Seafield Park.
Manager Donly McLeod will have Nicholas Mochan back in contention after suspension and he is likely to start the game because Jamie Rodgers is away for the weekend and therefore unavailable.
Fort William will be without defenders Andy Martin and Simon Shields who are both suspended.
