History of the Stirling Albion v Queen of the South fixture

Stirling Alb. are ready to welcome Queen of the South to Forthbank Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Binos are clearly on top, having won 26 and lost only 7 of the 43 games.

The previous match played between the two at Forthbank Stadium was within the last three years, in August 2005, the Binos carving out a narrow 2-1 victory in a Scottish League Cup match.

Recent respective form guides

Stirling Albion's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Binos have scored 10, a worringly large 13 have been leaked at the other end.

Queen o.t.S.'s away form is none too clever either, with two wins, two draws, and two defeats. The The Doonhamers's have a narrow positive goal difference over these games, with 8 goals for and 6 against.

Stirling Alb. find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 15 games have yielded only 11 points. Queen o.t.S. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 14 points from 15 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. Score draw
