East Fife head to the National Stadium tomorrow with one thought in mind; keeping their ten game unbeaten run intact. Manager Barry Smith, speaking earlier today, recognised the difficulty of the task ahead as his charges face a side that have taken maximum points from the Methil Men so far this season.

"It's going to be another difficult game for us at Queen's Park, and we are going to have to be at our best if we want to maintain our good run. Gus McPherson has got his side playing really well at the moment. As for last week against Stranraer, we should be looking to take all three points from games at home, but given the circumstances we have to be happy with the draw."

The Bayview Gaffer also reported that his side would be along the usual lines, with one un-named individual doubtful. Long-term injury victims Tony Wallace and Kyle Wilkie miss out, while new loan signing from Motherwell, Luke Watt goes straight into the squad. Ex-Hamilton Accies youngster Ben Reilly is also included in the travelling party.

As previously mentioned, the Fifers have lost twice so far this campaign to the Spiders. Hampden has not been a happy hunting ground for East Fife in recent years, with just one win in the last twelve games, but the Bayview Faithful head west hopeful of another good performance and a good result.
