Thanks to a mainly healthy group of players, there’s just a single fitness problem for the Kelty Hearts gaffer Thomas O'Ware to be concerned about. 1 (Kelty Hearts ) won’t be in action.
In our opinion, Queen Of The South will, in all likelihood, see a lot of the ball and convert quite a few goal-scoring opportunities.

We can therefore see a pretty comfortable 3-1 margin for Queen Of The South come full-time.
