Falkirk vs Alloa preview - Defensive duo boost Bairns

Falkirk will have defenders Will Vaulks and Jonny Flynn available for their clash with Alloa that has implications at both ends of the table.

Thomas Grant is the only absentee as he has been suffering from a virus, while technical director Alex Smith has urged his players to ignore what happens elsewhere.

Smith said: "It is not only the title we are going for as finishing second this season gives you two less games in the play-offs.

"We will look to win and then worry about what is happening at Dundee and Hamilton.

"We owe Alloa as their 3-0 win over us in March hurt us."

Alloa will be without the suspended Daryll Meggatt and Jonathan Tiffoney as they look to secure their place in the Championship next season.

Manager Barry Smith will finalise his side after fitness tests on Jason Marr and Eddie Ferns.

Smith said: "We showed in the first half against Dundee last week that we are a decent side, but unfortunately a goal right on half-time and a sending off just after it ruined our day.

"If we can put in a 90-minute performance of the high quality we are capable of we can get the points we need to be safe."
