Forfar vs Stirling preview - Triple boost for Forfar

A trio of Forfar players are set to make their comebacks from injury against Stirling.

Joe Shaughnessy, Jamie Bishop and Chris Templeman are all available for the crunch relegation clash.

Greg Ross and Chris Hegarty miss out through suspension and Iain Campbell is absent because of injury, while both Nicky Low and Ross Campbell are rated as doubts.

Station Park assistant manager Ian Campbell said: "This is a massive game for us and I am glad we are going into it with some players back.

"Stirling battle for everything and we need to match that and show that we are every bit as determined to stay in this league.

"As well as battling, we have to take the chances we have been creating as we missed a lot at Airdrie last week."

Stirling would climb above Forfar in the race to avoid the drop with a win, but they will need to do so without suspended defender Gary Thom.

Craig McLeish also looks set to miss out because of a knock but Joshua Flood is available after illness and Gavin McPherson returns after injury, with manager Greig McDonald saying: "This is the best shape we have been in squad wise for a number of weeks.

"We have drawn 2-2 with Forfar twice during my time in charge and I am now looking for us to go one better.

"We did really well last week against Arbroath as we stuck to our game plan and, if we do that again, we can win this one."
