Elgin City

LWWWLL

Elgin City will be hoping for a better result following the 2-0 League Two losing effort in their last game against Edinburgh City.

Malek Zaid (34') and Innes Lawson (65') scored for Edinburgh City.

Fewer than three goals per game were recorded in 5 of the past 6 meetings where Elgin City have taken part. With regard to the goal distribution from this period, opposition teams scored a total of 7 and Elgin City got themselves 5. That sort of pattern might not follow through here, though.

Peterhead

DWWDWW 📈

Peterhead head into the clash following on from a 1-0 League Two win with the downing of Spartans in their last fixture.

The only name on the scoresheet from Peterhead was Cammy Smith (19').

A sequence of effective showings from the Peterhead defensive unit has resulted in their ‘goals against’ tally amounting to 1 from their last 6 clashes in total. In that period of time, their forwards have scored 10.

Taking a look at their past results, Peterhead:

• have left without a victory over Elgin City when they've played them away from home in the last 3 league games.
• are unbeaten in their last 5 away league matches.

ℹ️ Team News: Elgin City

Looking at personnel, there is just the lone fitness concern for the Elgin City gaffer Allan Hale to be concerned with due to a largely intact set of players. 4   (Elgin City) will miss out.

📋 Team News: Peterhead

Due to a mostly available squad, there’s only the lone fitness issue for the Peterhead boss Jordon Brown to be concerned with. 1   (Peterhead) won’t be playing here.

🔮 Prediction

We’ve got the feeling that Elgin City will have to perform well to hit the back of the net against this Peterhead lineup who we think might get the win and a maybe even keep a clean sheet as well.

We’re therefore tipping a very even match with a 0-1 winning margin for Peterhead at the end of this game.

Hoping for a good game.
