Struggling Queen's Park will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Cowdenbeath in the upcoming league round. It’s 7th vs 3rd and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
