Spartans are back in Lowland League action again tonight as they head down to the Borders to take on Gala Fairydean Rovers at Netherdale.

With two wins out of the opening three league games, Dougie Samuel’s men will be looking to build on last Friday’s Challenge Cup clean sheet against a Gala side who come into the fixture on the back of a 3-1 win over Civil Service Strollers at the weekend.

Spartans will be without the services of the injured Ian McFarland whilst Adam Corbett & Mikey Allan serve their suspension following their recent transgressions against Stirling Uni.

Alan Brown is set for a return to the squad whilst new signing Jamie Watson is likely to feature once again.

Spartans will provide live Twitter updates throughout the match @spartansfc for the 7.45pm kick-off.

The club has reminded everyone that under no circumstances should ANY fans travel to the game.
