DUMBARTON are top of League Two and face managerless Stenhousemuir, who are on a real slide, at home on Saturday.

And they look a solid shout at a generous 20/21 to maintain their title charge if it beats the big freeze.

The Sons are on a good run and haven't lost since a 6-0 shocker at Stirling back in October. In fact, they've won five of their last seven games and look to be going great guns under Stevie Farrell.

They've also made The Rock a fortress and are unbeaten at home all season.

Stenny were tipped to be one of the promotion challengers this season, but binned boss Stephen Swift last week and are bottom of the form table having not won in their last six league games.

Last week's home defeat to Forfar Athletic pushed them into serious trouble and they still have injury worries. They are not the worst team in the league, but Dumbarton should be too strong for them and they seem a very fair price to get another win on the board.

There are only two places separating RAITH ROVERS and Arbroath in the Championship, but there's a gap of nine points and that can be increased to 12 in Kirkcaldy on Saturday with the Fifers looking good at 10/11 again to beat Dick Campbell's men.

Rovers haven't been firing on all cylinders recently and indeed took a sore one when they conceded five goals at home to a clinical Queen's Park side.
But in their previous three matches at Stark's Park, they scored three goals every time against Partick Thistle, Cove Rangers and Hamilton Accies.
They've already beaten this week's opponents Arbroath at Gayfield this season and the Red Lichties were dismantled by Dunfermline in last week's Challenge Cup at home. That's League One Dunfermline.
It's not been a happy season for Arbroath and last term's heroics look a long way away. Back Raith to take the three points here.

ANNAN ATHLETIC have improved in recent weeks and they can beat Bonnyrigg Rose at Galabank in League Two at evens.

Peter Murphy's side had been struggling a month or so ago after going six league games without a win and losing at Pollok in the Scottish Cup.

But they are back on track after impressive away wins at Forfar Athletic, Stirling Albion and East Fife recently, but they need to get their home form sorted.

League new boys Bonnyrigg are now bottom of the league and the pre-season title favourites have won just one league game since the end of August.

RECOMMENDATIONS:
DUMBARTON 20/21
RAITH ROVERS 10/11
ANNAN ATHLETIC evens.
