Fort William v Bo’ness Utd

The game at Claggan Park is in doubt because of the heavy rain that has fallen in Lochaber this week. If the game is postponed it will give the Fort an extra week to have goalkeeper John Campbell and full-back Stephen Hendry fit.

Rothes v Clachnacuddin

St Cuthbert Wanderers v Keith
