Forfar Athletic
LWWLWD
Forfar Athletic go into this fixture after a 0-0 League Two drawn result against Peterhead.
A recurring theme in more recent Forfar Athletic games is seeing a zero in the scoreline.
Taking their previous sextet of clashes before this one, in as many as 5 of them a bet on both teams scoring would have been a loser.
Looking at the pre-match facts, Forfar Athletic:
- haven't beaten East Fife in their previous 3 league matches.
- are without a home win in the past 8 league games. It's been disappointing.
East Fife
DLWLLW
East Fife will go into this match following a 4-2 League Two win vs Spartans in their most recent fixture.
For East Fife, the goalscorers were Alan Trouten (50'), Michael McKenna (53') and Nathan Austin (84', 88'). Jamie Dishington (17') and Blair Henderson (45') scored for Spartans.
The stats don’t lie, and East Fife have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, conceding 12 goals overall. At the back, East Fife seem to have a bit of a soft underbelly. Previous results aside, we must now wait to see whether that trend might be maintained in this upcoming game or not.
Coming into this meeting, East Fife have not emerged victorious against Forfar Athletic in away games against them for the last 4 league games. Not the best of away records.

It doesn’t get much better regarding selection, with just the lone fitness concern for the Forfar Athletic gaffer Jim Weir to contend with from an otherwise complete group of players. 9 (Forfar Athletic) is sidelined.

Prediction
We feel that over the course of the game, Forfar Athletic could find themselves up against it to put one past this East Fife team who we think will likely just have the edge.
That’s why our selection here is for a hard-fought 0-1 winning margin for East Fife at the end of the 90.
We’ll see what happens.
