AIRDRIE are just 90 minutes away from a place in the SFL1 play-off final.

​

But a tough trip to Somerset Park lies ahead tomorrow for Jimmy Boyle and his players.

​

The Diamonds dominated Wednesday night's first leg at New Broomfield and created stacks of chances.

​

However, they could not find that elusive goal; and when they did find the back of the net, the effort was controversially ruled out.

​

On top of that, Airdrie had a penalty saved, hit the bar and then the post. Ayr were hanging on.

​

Diamonds defender Cameron MacDonald can't wait for the weekend showdown at the seaside and hopes fortune favours the brave.

​

He said: "It's disappointing not to have won the first leg but it was an entertaining game to play in and I think we showed we are a good team.

​

"We had so many good chances. I had three myself out there. We're frustrated not to have put a couple of them away.

​

"We feel we can get a result down there. It's only half-time in the tie. We've proved that we can win away from home at difficult places."

​

Airdrie welcome back winger Willie McLaren from a two-match suspension.
