Callum Fordyce says Airdrie are focused on reaching the League One play-off as they look to bounce back from their defeat at Queen of the South last week.

The Diamonds welcome Kelty Hearts to New Broomfield this afternoon aiming to get back to winning ways. Fordyce's side have lost three of their last four games in League One, which has seen them slip out of the top four and, with it, out of the play-off spots.

They sit two points behind fourth-place Alloa and five adrift of FC Edinburgh in third, while leaders Dunfermline and second-place Falkirk are way out in front.

Fordyce said: "I think there are nine games to go now, we are into the last quarter, so it's about getting into the play-offs now. "Most teams will be looking at things the same way. "Falkirk and Dunfermline are away in front themselves, so it's now about making sure we get into those play-offs. "We've got a great chance on Saturday to go and get points against Kelty. "We will reflect on the [Queens] game and look to rectify the mistakes we made, look at the positive aspects that we've got and try and win the game to get back on track." The last three meetings between the Diamonds and Kelty have all been tight affairs.
