League Two leaders Forfar face a Clyde team today that hasn’t won in 11 games.
But Station Park boss Gary Bollan is wary of the new manager bounce, with interim duo Jon-Paul McGovern and Peter MacDonald now in charge.
Bollan, whose own team are winless in their last three, said: “There are a good group of players at Clyde and they will be out to end the disappointing time that they have had.
“We have had a couple of difficult games against them this season already and this will be the same especially as their are new managers in place.
“They might have had a few disappointments recently but we cannot take that into account. We simply have to apply ourselves in a professional manner.”
That professional manner will include returning to the type of football that has seen the Loons top the table for most of the season.
Bollan added: “We didn’t get our passing game going against Montrose last week and that was disappointing. They are a much improved side and a draw was the right result in what was a hard, hard fought game.
“On days like last weekend when you sense that you are perhaps not going to get the break you need to win the game it then becomes important not to lose it. We did that but we realise that is three games in a row where we have not won.
“It will be good to change that but it will take hard work and far more accuracy with the ball to make it happen.”
Eddie Malone serves the final game of his three match ban, however Danny Denholm returns from a suspension.
