Livingston vs Dundee preview - Bollan has no worries

Posted Saturday, August 20, 2011 by PA

Livingston manager Gary Bollan has a fully-fit squad to choose from for the visit of Dundee to the Braidwood Motor Company Stadium.

With everyone available, Bollan has a selection dilemma he warmly welcomes.

He said: "I am lucky that I have everyone to choose from and we are raring to go for the type of game that makes all the hard work in getting promoted worthwhile.

"Dundee will bring a big support down with them and there should be a great atmosphere and two sides going all out for a win.

"It has been a couple of years since we played each other and hopefully we will get a better result than we did last time out when a Gary Harkins goal saw them sneak through in a cup tie."

Striker Graham Bayne is in line for his Dundee debut.

The 31-year-old has finally been passed fit for the first time this season and goes straight into the Dark Blues squad.

Everyone else is available to manager Barry Smith, who is telling his men they have to keep things tight in defence if they are to take anything home from West Lothian.

Smith said: "Having Graham available gives us more options up front, however our defence will be tested in this game.

"Livingston can score for fun if you let them, so we have to ensure that we shut up shop. If we do that we can look to grab our second away win of the season."
