Raith Rovers vs Dundee preview - Suspended Callachan misses out for Rovers

Raith Rovers have midfield player Ross Callachan missing from their ranks through suspension as they host Dundee.

The youngster was sent off when he made his first-team debut at Ayr United a fortnight ago.

Scott McBride is available again after a knock, but captain Iain Davidson remains out with a medial ligament strain.

Kirkcaldy manager John McGlynn kept his men busy during the international break to ensure they were ready for the Dark Blues as he explained: "We put the break to good use by playing a couple of games and working on a couple of things we needed to.

"Games against Dundee are always exciting and hopefully by keeping the boys ticking over we are more than ready."

Dundee boss Barry Smith has a fully-fit squad to pick from for the clash.

He takes his squad across the River Tay with a view to guiding the Dark Blue men to their first victory in six games.

Smith said: "We have had everyone in training every day this week, so we are in good shape numbers wise but we are on a disappointing run at the moment and I am looking for that to end.

"Stark's Park is always a good place to go to and whilst we have not been playing to the standard we can, I am sure a good performance and a win is not that far away."
