Team News |
| Loons captain, Alan Rattray, is doubtful ahead of the CIS Cup 1st Round tie. Rattray suffered an injury during the course of last Tuesday's defeat to Airdrie and played no part on Saturday. Recent injury victims, Barry Sellars and David Stewart, are both classified as 'doubtful' - but will be given an opportunity to prove their fitness before the match. Saturday's Man Of The Match, Paul Lunan, is unlikely to make the bench - rounding off Ray Stewart's injury problems. Daniel Ogunmade could make his debut after signing a loan deal from Dundee United. The youngster can play either on the left wing or as a striker. Ogunmade will offer Ray Stewart some much needed versatility and an injection of pace to Forfar's attack. Kevin Byers could return after serving his suspension against Stenhousemuir. The midfield magician will be looking to recapture his form of last season, should he be given an starting slot. Berwick are missing Martin Neil, Neil Inglis, Mark McCormick, Gordon Connelly and Alan Neill. |

Forfar will be looking to kickstart their season after failing to score in four successive matches. Berwick will provide tough opposition and will include new signings Colin Waldie and Gareth Hutchison. 'The Borderers' triumphed 3-2 against Dumbarton at the weekend, thanks to two late strikes from midfielder Gordon Forrest. Forfar's record against Berwick last season was nothing short of abysmal and the Loons will be looking to avenge that. Forfar's last win against Berwick Rangers was at the end of Season 2001/02, when two late strikes - against the run of play - put the Loons into the frame for a promotion place.
