Recent respective form guides

Stenhousemuir's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Warriors have scored 5, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.

Arbroath's away form is none too clever either, with two wins, two draws, and two defeats. While the Red Lichties have hit 6 goals, 9 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Stenhousemuir find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 27 games have yielded only 21 points. Arbroath are stuck down in the relegation zone of Bells Scottish Division Two with a return of just 30 points from their 28 games thus far.
