Highland League
Buckie Thistle v Fort William
Second-placed Buckie face Fort William at Victoria Park and they'll be without Kieran Adams and Daniel Bell due to work commitments. Sam Morrison also misses out with a broken hand, while Declan Milne and Jay Cheyne are both out on loan. Lewis MacKinnon returns from injury.
Full squad for selection with exception of the big man, John Treasurer who has a few weeks recovery left. Squads positive and looking forward to Saturday.
Clach v Turriff Utd
Two of the bottom six meet at Grant Street as new Clach boss Sandy McLeod aims to guide his side to their first league points of the season.
Turriff played well in defeat to Formartine in midweek, and they'll hope to continue that form on their trip to the Highland capital.
Deveronvale v Brora Rangers
Deveronvale take on Brora at Princess Royal Park as they look for their first league win since 10th August. Boss Steve Dolan names the same squad who narrowly lost out to local rivals Buckie on Wednesday night.
Brora will be without the injured Paul Brindle and Steven Mackay. John Pickles, Dale Gillespie and Kyle Macleod return to the squad.
Formartine Utd v Forres Mechanics
Formartine host Forres at North Lodge Park after returning to winning ways at Turriff in midweek. The likes of Garry Wood and Scott Lisle will be pushing for a return to the starting line-up after starting on the bench at The Haughs. Aaron Norris has signed for the club on a permanent deal from Peterhead and could be involved.
Callum Howarth and Ryan Farquhar are out with hamstring and knee injuries respectively for the Cans, while there is also a doubt over Stuart Soane with a calf problem.
