Annan Athletic will be wanting a better result here following the 1-0 League One loss in their previous game against Alloa Athletic.
Magnus MacKenzie (51') was the scorer for Alloa Athletic.
It’s been all too rare in recent times where Annan Athletic have managed to hold out for a full 90 minutes. It will be a concern for them that Annan Athletic have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 clashes, leaking 9 goals on the way.
Heading into this fixture, Annan Athletic have not won against Arbroath in their last 4 league matches.
Arbroath come into this match following a 4-0 League One win over Stenhousemuir in their last match.
For Arbroath, the scorers were Sam Stanton (45', 52'), Fraser Taylor (48') and Andrew Winter (60').
A series of reliable performances from the Arbroath defence has resulted in their ‘goals against’ tally amounting to 4 from their past 6 clashes overall. In that period of time, the number of goals that they have scored themselves amounts to 11. We will just have to find out if that trend will end up being sustained into this next match.
Leading up to this clash, Arbroath:
A review of their prior head-to-head clashes dating back to 21/01/2017 tells us that Annan Athletic have won 2 of these games and Arbroath 4, with the tally of drawn games being 0.
There were also goals galore in those games, with 22 overall at an average of 3.67 goals per meeting.
The previous league encounter featuring these sides was League One match day 27 on 01/03/2025 when it finished Arbroath 3-0 Annan Athletic.
The match was refereed by Steven Kirkland.
We’re envisaging that Annan Athletic might have a difficult job to break down this Arbroath team who we think should score & stay on top.
With that in mind, we reckon that it will be a narrow 0-1 victory for Arbroath after 90 minutes.
Expecting it to be tight.
Looking at the betting prices for the match on the WDW market, a win for Annan Athletic is best priced at 3.4, a wager on a drawn result is 3.6 & selecting a win for Arbroath gets you 1.85. These are the best of the returns being offered right now.
