Recent respective form guides
Albion Rovers's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Wee Rovers have scored 15, a worringly large 20 have been leaked at the other end.
Forfar Ath.'s away form is none too clever either, winning 2 of the last six, but losing the other 4. While the Loons have hit 7 goals, 16 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Albion Rvs. see themselves just below half way in the Irn Bru Scottish Division Three, showing a record of 24 points from their 21 games played so far, Forfar Ath. find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 22 games have yielded only 15 points.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Its been a distinctly poor show from Albion Rvs. at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Wee Rovers will at least gain a draw. Score draw
