C:WindowsTempphpC666.tmpCalum Gallagher will be back in the Cowdenbeath squad for the visit of league leaders Hearts on Saturday. The Rangers striker has missed the last two game, under the terms of his loan deal from the Ibrox club. The Blue Brazil are again without the injured John Armstrong (achilles), Kenny Adamson (foot), Dean Brett (foot) and Craig Sutherland (knee) but manager Jimmy Nicholl is promising to attack the Edinburgh giants on Saturday. He said: "We kept things tight against Rangers last week and almost saw things out before we lost a goal that we could not get back. This game is different as we are at home and will look to take the game to a very good Hearts side."

Hearts expect striker Dale Carrick and midfielders Sam Nicholson and Jason Holt to be back in action. However, striker Osman Sow and left-back Kevin McHattie remain out until the new year. Head coach Robbie Neilson said ahead of the away game at Central Park: "It's a difficult environment to go into. It's a tight pitch and it's an open stadium but at the end of the day it's green and it's got white lines on it, so we just need to go and play. We'll try to play football but at times it could be difficult, so we need to make sure we have another option that we can look at if we need to change the style of play."
