Stirling Albion vs Brechin City preview - Stirling bid to get up and running

Posted Friday, September 12, 2014 by PA

Stirling will look for their first home win of the campaign when Brechin visit, and they hope to have striker Steven Doris back in their ranks after a shoulder injury.

Craig Comrie has suffered an abdominal injury and misses out, as does Phil Johnston who has a hamstring problem.

Manager Greig McDonald said: "Five points from three away games is a good start to the season, however we were really disappointing in our home match with Ayr when we lost 3-1. Hopefully we can make up for that performance against Brechin.

"They are a well-established League One side, however we can go out and win this game."

Brechin have added Aberdeen midfielder Jamie Masson on loan and he is all set to make his debut at Forthbank.

Manager Ray McKinnon has a fully-fit and suspension-free squad as he looks to stretch his side's unbeaten run to five games.

McKinnon said: "We had hoped to get Jamie in a fortnight ago, however injuries at Aberdeen saw the deal delayed. He is here now and determined to do well for us.

"We may be unbeaten but we should have more points than we have. We need to start being more ruthless in front of goal and hopefully we can show that against a good Stirling side."
