PREVIEW: Clyde v Elgin City
The Bully Wee welcome Elgin City to New Douglas Park on Saturday in matchday 7 of the cinch League 2 season.
It’ll be the first meeting of the sides in the League for four years, though they did face off last season at Borough Briggs in the Challenge Cup, with Clyde prevailing after a penalty shoot-out.
Barry Cuddihy will join Liam Scullion, Jon Craig and Ray Grant on the sidelines after sustaining a calf injury against East Fife last weekend. The captain is expected to be missing for the next 4 to 8 weeks.
