Stirling Alb. prepare to entertain Partick Thistle at Forthbank Stadium on Saturday afternoon, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 15 of the 35 previous games, with the Binos winning just 11.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Forthbank Stadium was two seasons ago, in November 2008, with Partick Th. inflicting a narrow 2-3 defeat upon the Binos in a Scottish F.A. Cup match.

Recent respective form guides
Stirling Albion need to improve on their recent home record of just 3 draws from the previous six. While Binos have scored 4, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.
Partick Th.'s away form is none too clever either, accumulating just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While the The Jags have hit 6 goals, 12 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Stirling Alb. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 9 points from 9 matches. Partick Th. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 9 points from 9 matches.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Its been a distinctly poor show from Stirling Alb. at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Binos will at least gain a draw. No-score draw

| Stirling Alb. | Drawn last 2 games at home. Failed to win in previous 6 home matches. Unbeaten run of 3 matches. |
