Queen's Mad Prediction...

Victoria Park is never an easy place to pick up points and County having spent big during the summer will be a tough nut to crack. We predict the best the Doonhamers can do is to secure a point.

Queens will be without Ken Smith and Stephen McKenna due to supension but wil have defender Craig Reid back.
