Livi have striker choice

Livingston manager Gary Bollan looks set to be spoiled for choice in the striking department when Peterhead visit.

Italian front man Raffaele de Vita is available for selection after making a goalscoring return from injury in a reserve match during the week.

Iain Russell was drafted in to take over from de Vita last weekend against Stenhousemuir and scored, as did Robbie Winters to leave Bollan with an embarrassment of riches.

Defender Jason Talbot and midfielder Keaghan Jacobs are both ruled out through injury though.

Bollan said: "I have not finalised my starting line-up as yet but it is good to have choices.

"The last game between the sides was really tight and finished goalless, however I would be surprised if that was the case this time."

Peterhead's attacking options have received a big blow.

Strikers Dennis Wyness and Martin Bavidge have both ruled out by manager Neale Cooper as a result of injury.

There was some good news for the Balmoor boss however as defender Bobby Mann is included in the travelling party after an ankle injury, with the goal threat of Nicky Clark and Connor Gethins also available after knocks.

Winger Graeme Sharp is also included after overcoming a niggle picked up in last week's morale-boosting win over Dumbarton.

Cooper said: "It was great to get a win last week and start moving up the way in the table. This will be a hard game but if we play like we can then we will do okay."
