Recent respective form guides
Stirling Albion's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While Binos have scored 8, a worringly large 13 have been leaked at the other end.
Ayr Utd.'s away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occasions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. The games have constituted a decent return of 10 goals for the Honest Men, and 8 goals against.
Stirling Alb. lie just outside the playoff positions in the Irn Bru Scottish Division Two, picking up 25 points from their 19 games so far. Ayr Utd. are just outside the promotion places, in 2nd, having taken 37 points from 18 games.
