It has been confirmed a pitch inspection will take place at Galabank on Friday at 1pm to decide if the League One clash will go ahead this weekend.

Inverness Caledonian Thistle are in ninth place in League One following their 2-0 win against Dumbarton last Saturday.

New signing Alfie Bavidge opened the scoring with Charlie Gilmour finding the net in the second half to seal the win.

Inverness Caledonian Thistle are seven points behind Annan Athletic in eighth place, with a game in hand on Saturday’s scheduled opponents.
