👥 Head to head
Looking at their past head to head results stretching back to 04/12/2021 reveals that these fixtures have been miserable for Dumbarton. They have not been able to register any wins at all whereas Cove Rangers have been the better of the two, beating them in 67% of those games played.
An aggregate of 15 goals were shared by the two clubs throughout the course of those matches, with 4 of them for The Sons and 11 coming from The Wee Rangers. That’s an average goals per game of 2.5.

🧠 Prediction
In this match, Dumbarton will manage to score against this Cove Rangers side, although just one goal likely won’t be good enough.
We therefore reckon that it will be a very close game with a 1-2 winning margin for Cove Rangers after 90 minutes. We’ll have to see what happens.
