Match Report
Ayr United and Raith Rovers missed the chance to draw level with second-top Dunfermline Athletic in the Scottish Championship after a goalless draw.
Rovers goalkeeper Jamie MacDonald saved well twice from Michael Moffat, then Innes Cameron, while an Aaron Muirhead header struck the visiting crossbar.
On-loan Aston Villa goalkeeper Viljami Sinisalo parried clear a powerful drive from Rovers defender Kieran MacDonald.
Rovers stay third ahead of Ayr on goal difference and two points off the Pars.
Both sides had their moments of dominance, with Rovers playing the more impressive football but Ayr having the better of the chances.
Ayr remain unbeaten in six home games this season, while the Fifers have not won in three outings, although those were all against other sides in the top five.
