CANNING BACK FOR ACCIES

Canning - back in the squad.

Hamilton welcome back Martin Canning to their squad for the Clydesdale Bank Premier League clash against Falkirk.

The former Hibernian defender was cup-tied for Hamilton's 2-1 extra-time win at Motherwell on Wednesday.

Those 120 minutes of derby football have resulted in "one or two niggles" in the Accies squad and boss Billy Reid will make a late decision on the affected players.

Falkirk manager John Hughes has no fresh injury worries ahead of the clash.

Leg-break victim Dean Holden returned to full training in midweek but is still several weeks away from a first-team comeback.

Midfielder Russell Latapy has recovered from the ankle knock that has hampered him for over a month, while playmaker Arnau Riera also returned to training following a knee injury.

Teams:

Falkirk (from): Olejnik, Scobbie, Bullen, McNamara, McCann, Barr, O'Brien, McBride, Arfield, Barrett, Higdon, Flinders, McCaffrey, Aafjes, Cregg, M Stewart, Lynch, Lovell.

Hamilton (from): Cerny, Stevenson, Easton, Canning, Elebert, Swailes, Casement, Neil, Mensing, McCarthy, McArthur, Graham, Corcoran, Offiong, Lyle, Ettien, Murdoch, Sorsa.
