Recent Form : Whilst Queen's and Albion Rovers have each only lost one game in their last seven, 'Rovers are on an unbeaten six match run which includes five wins. This impressive run of form which began with a 4-0 tanking at New Bayview of the then League leaders East Fife, has seen the Coatbridge side rise up the table from 5th to their current pole position, albeit that East Fife do have a game in hand.
Likely Outcome : Hopefully, other than Danny Ferry's illness, Queen's will be at full strength with the recent flu virus now no more than an unpleasant memory. Last week's draw at Cappielow must have given the side great heart, even though they fully deserved to win, and they will no doubt approach this game in a similar manner. With 'Rover's bubble just waiting to be burst, perhaps this time The Spiders can go one better and secure a 2-1 win.
