Bonnyrigg Rose will be hoping their Scottish Cup heroics against Falkirk last weekend can transfer over to tomorrow's return to cinch League Two action when they travel to Station Park to take on Forfar.

Goals from Conor Doan and Bradley Barrett saw the Rose secure a last-gasp winner over the unbeaten Bairns, with a trip to Pittodrie next weekend to take on Aberdeen proving a fitting reward for the player's hard work.

In cinch League Two, it has been a season of ups and downs for Rose but they will be looking for a successful trip to Station Park much like their previous trip to face the Loons earlier in the season.

A Rose side in hot form at the start of the season travelled to Station Park and took an early lead as Neil Martyniuk slotted home from the spot. Stuart Morrison headed the Loons level in the second-half but a matter of moments later Alieu Faye rounded the keeper before tucking home the winning goal.

Forfar sit 8th in cinch League Two and also made a decent effort in the Scottish Cup this season, reaching the fourth round stage where they lost a home tie against Premiership side Hibernian. Home form has been the problem for the Loons as of their 4 wins in the league this season, just one of them has come at Station Park in their most recent cinch League Two fixture against Elgin City.

The previous meeting between the two sides saw Forfar run out 2-0 victors at New Dundas Park earlier in the season as Mark Whatley and Ryan Paterson were both on the scoresheet.

Payment is by cash only at the Gate for Station Park, with stand tickets being priced at £15 for adults, £9 for concessions and £5 for under 16's. Terracing tickets are priced at £14 for adults, £8 for concessions and £4 for under 16s.
