Forfar Athletic v Stranraer

The ‘Loons’ return to Station Park for their second cinch leaqgue2 fixture of the season on Saturday first when Stranraer are the visitors.

While the Athies were losing 2-0 at Bonnyrigg on Saturday past, Stranraer picked up all three points courtesy of a first half penalty counter against Annan Athletic at Stair Park.

The two sides have already met this season in a Premier Sports Cup group H clash at Station Park which ended in an entertaining 2-2 draw.

Of course Forfar were subsequently awarded the three points due to the visitors fielding an ineligible player on the night.
