Recent respective form guides

Albion Rovers's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Wee Rovers have scored 13, a worringly large 17 have been leaked at the other end.

East Fife's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While the Fifers have hit 4 goals, 8 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Albion Rvs. find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 1 games have yielded only 0 points. East Fife's 3 points from 1 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 5th position.
