Tomorrow Stenhousemuir visit The Rock for the first time this season.
Last season, The Warriors scraped into the Division 3 playoffs finishing in fourth place, 7 points behind second place Cowdenbeath. But they battled their way into the playoff final and beat Cowdenbeath on penalties to secure promotion (although Cowdenbeath were also promoted following the problems with Livingston.)
Stenny have coped better with the transition to the Second Division than the Sons or Cowdenbeath. They drew their first three league games and secured their first win last week against Arbroath leaving them in 4th place in the division.
Matches against Stenny are usually tough affairs and I don't see tomorrow being any different.
Here's Sons recent results against Stenhousemuir.
