Match Preview

Highland League leaders Buckie Thistle make the trip to Aberdeen to take on seventh place Banks o' Dee at Spain Park.

Both sides will be aiming to bounce back from disappointing recent results, with Jags smarting from last weekends League Cup defeat on penalties to Keith; while Dee were held at home by Lossiemouth a fortnight ago, a week after crashing out of the League Cup to Forres Mechanics at Spain Park.

Last season's encounter in the league was won 3-1 by Buckie in March, thanks to an Andrew MacAskill double and a Josh Peters strike, after Dee had taken an early lead through Lachie Macleod.

Jags will have the same squad available, with Joe McCabe, Shaun Wood and Kevin Fraser still out injured.

The home side will be without Dean Lawrie who is offshore.
