The Classic Border ‘Derby’
After a gap of 7 years, Berwick make the long trip over to the west coast to take on Division One side Stranraer at Stairs Park. Since then, Stranraer have established themselves in the 1st Division and it will be a tough game for our young side.
A familiar face for Berwick fans is former player Lee Hamilton who will be hoping to make his home debut for the Blues as they look to build on the narrow loss at Falkirk.
Team News for Berwick, Ali Smith is unavailable and Euan Smith ‘s partner is due a baby imminently so he (Euan that is) may or may not travel with the team. Good news is that Cieran Chalmers has trained all week and will hope to feature at some point on Saturday.
