Prediction
We’ve got the feeling that Arbroath can and should convert a lot of goal-scoring opportunities.
In contrast, Montrose will be up against it getting on the scoresheet although we do think that they will probably end up seeing enough of the ball to score, too.
Accordingly, we see a decent 3-1 victory for Arbroath at the end of this one.
