Stirling are ready to welcome Stranraer to Forthbank Stadium on Saturday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Binos are clearly on top, having won 23 and lost only 8 of the 37 games.
The previous match played between the two at Forthbank Stadium was within the last three years, in March 2001, with Stranraer inflicting a narrow 0-1 defeat upon the Binos in a Scottish Division Two match.
