📏 Form Guide

Queen's Park
LLLLDD ⚠
Queen's Park go into this match following on from a 2-2 Championship drawn match against Ayr United.
For Queen's Park, the goals were scored by Seb Drozd (22') and Roddy MacGregor (31'). Jamie Murphy (16') and Mark McKenzie (54') scored for Ayr United.
An interesting theme in recent Queen's Park games is the number of results with a nil in them.
From their prior six matches leading up to this one, in 5 of them a bet on BTTS would've been a losing one. Such a pattern might not follow through into this game, though.
Going into this contest, Queen's Park haven’t won at home in the past 7 matches in the league. That's never good.
Raith Rovers
DWWDWD 📈

Checking out their prior head to head duels dating back to 11/11/2023, there has been little between the sides with Queen's Park winning 2 of those games, Raith Rovers 2 and 2 being drawn in regulation time.
A sum of 17 goals were yielded between them during those clashes, with 10 of them for The Spiders and 7 coming from The Rovers. That’s an average goals per game of 2.83.

📰 Team News: Raith Rovers
Owing to an otherwise full-strength group, there is just the sole fitness worry for the Raith Rovers boss Barry Robson to be concerned about. Callum Smith (Cruciate ligament surgery) won’t be in action.
💡 Prediction
We envisage that Queen's Park should be able to breach the defence of this Raith Rovers team, although one goal likely won’t be enough to avoid defeat.
We’re therefore tipping a 1-2 win for Raith Rovers at the end of the match. It should be a decent one.
