Team news
Howarth set for Clyde comeback Steve Howarth should return for Clyde's clash with Cowdenbeath after recovering from injury.
However, the versatile Marvyn Wilson looks set to be sidelined for another week at least.
Trialist striker Bob Davidson may again be involved as Bully Wee boss John Brown looks to recover from the 2-0 defeat by Alloa last week.
Brown said: "We didn't reach the standards we had been setting lately and we need to get back to them." Cowdenbeath head for Broadwood this Saturday wanting to continue their progress in the Second Division which has taken them into second spot.
Clyde have improved greatly since the last time the teams clashed, when Cowden won 1-0 at Central Park.
The hosts are still in the bottom three but have recorded some good results on their own park.
Clyde vs Cowdenbeath

McBride sends Blue Brazil top Cowdenbeath rose to the top of the Scottish Second Division as a last-minute penalty by substitute Scott McBride sealed a 1-0 triumph over Clyde.
The visitors dominated for much of the game and almost went ahead after 21 minutes when Paul McQuade pounced on a slip by Mark Casey and released Mark Wardlaw, whose shot was brilliantly saved by Callum Reidford.
Clyde responded immediately when William McLauchlan broke forward from midfield and shot narrowly wide.
Moments later McLauchlan went close again when his 30-yard strike skidded past the post.
Cowdenbeath stepped up the pressure after the restart and McQuade twice went close, first firing into the side netting and then rattling the crossbar with a fierce strike from 12 yards.
But the Bully Wee also went close when Ally Park's netbound header was brilliantly clawed away by goalkeeper David Hay.
