Recent respective form guides
Albion Rovers's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Wee Rovers have scored 5, a worringly large 18 have been leaked at the other end.
Arbroath's away form is none too clever either, collecting just 4 draws from the last six contests. While the Red Lichties have hit 11 goals, 15 have hit the back of the wrong net.
