MATCH PREVIEW
Manager Jim Weir’s selection problems are compounded with the suspension of central defender Scot Buist for the visit of the Sons. Derek Carcary remains out long-term and at this moment in time it appears that Paul McLean, David McClune, Gerry McGlauchlan, Ewan Moyes and Charlie King will also be missing although there is a glimmer of hope that striker Jim Lister may be fit.
Dumbarton travel north with a full-strength squad. Kevin Nicoll, who missed Tuesday night’s win over Stenhousemuir because of work commitments will be available and Mark Gilhaney has recovered from a stomach bug.
