Match Preview : Annan Athletic v Berwick Rangers – Ladbrokes League Two

Following the postponement of the game last Saturday, the ‘Gers return to league action tomorrow with an away fixture against 5th placed Annan Athletic.

The game kicks off at 3pm with both sides looking for the final chance to take 3 points before Christmas.

This will be the second league game between the sides this season with Annan triumphing 0-3 at Shielfield Park earlier in the 2018/19 campaign.

History

This will be the 42nd league encounter between the respective sides, with the current record looking as follows:

Berwick Rangers 11

Drawn 11

Annan Athletic 19

Berwick News

The team news for the ‘Gers is the same as last week, with Daryl Healy, Sean Murphy, Paul Willis and Ouzy See all still sidelined and expected to return early 2019.

Jamie Todd is back in contention.

John Neill and Aidan Mcllduff have both signed extended deals taking them through until the end of the season.

Annan Athletic News

The home sides form is in stark contrast to that convincing victory at Berwick earlier this season. No wins in 6 and defeats in the last 3 games. Darren Barr has joined the club in December to become assistant manager to Peter Murphy.
