The sides do battle again at New Douglas Park this afternoon
Accies defender Lee Kilday admits Alloa had them on the ropes in their first leg clash and they will need to up their performance in today's second leg to deliver the knockout blow required to reach the play-off final.
Accies required a Kevin O'Hara header to haul themselves level in the 75th minute but Kilday is confident they will get the better of their League One rivals on home turf to take a step closer to an immediate return to the Championship. "We have been good at the back this season as well. We've had something like 18 clean sheets in the league, so taking it back to our place, we will feel confident going into it."
The 19-year-old, who sparked Alloa's revival with a cool finish inside the box, featured five times for the Saints at the start of the season before being loaned out to Andy Graham's side.
