Recent respective form guides

Stenhousemuir's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While Warriors have scored 7, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.

Albion Rvs.'s away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. Wee Rovers have conceded 8 goals in these games, and only hit 3 in reply.
