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 5, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.

St. Johnstone's away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occasions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. The Saints's have a narrow positive goal difference over these games, with 9 goals for and 7 against.

Stirling Alb. find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 34 games have yielded only 21 points. St. Johnstone are just outside the promotion places, in 3rd, having taken 55 points from 34 games.
