Inverleith coach Stuart Neave is happy to report no injuries or suspensions ahead of the trip to Uddingston on Saturday.

Neave said the squad have been working hard in training and looking forward to what will obviously be a challenging game.

Selection still has to be finalised as there is strong competition for places in the final 16.

Meanwhile, Edinburgh University coach Graham Moodie still has two long-term injuries ahead of his side’s home clash with Clydesdale at Peffermill (push off 4pm).

Chris Duncan and Sean Stewart are still sidelined but without them the students still won 8-5 against Inverleith on their last outing.

Graham’s younger brother Ian Moodie lead the line aggressively and the coach said: “To be honest, we just want to improve on what was a really positive first game.

“It was great to score so many goals but I’m not sure we can afford to let in five a game all season.”

He added: “I think this will be a really competitive game between two young sides and it’s a game we want to win.

“If we can continue to be clinical in front of goal and improve defensively we’ll give ourselves every chance.

Unbeaten Grange visit Hillhead and the other games in the division feature Grove Menzieshill against Bromac Kelburne and Western v Dundee Wanderers.
