Brechin City - City boss Ray McKinnon will be without skipper Craig Molloy, Alan Trouten and Callum Tapping for the visit to Somerset Park. Kyle McAusland who missed last Saturday's game against Stranraer remains a doubt but defender Darren McCormack who also missed the Stranraer match is fit and looks set to return to the City back-line.

Ayr United - Ayr United manager Mark Roberts has no injury worries and will have a full-squad available.
