Arbroath form and stats

It's not happening yet for Arbroath on their Championship travels, with zero points from their first 2 away games. Maybe today will be different? Arbroath seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

Arbroath failed to get anything from their last game, a League Cup home match vs Dunfermline Athletic (placed 1st) that ended with defeat 1-3. Ahead of that game was the 0-0 draw at home against Greenock Morton in the Championship.

Looking at the earlier recent performances of Arbroath when being an outsider away as they are today, we find one match with the visitors losing one time, drawing zero and winning zero games.

1 goal so far away for Arbroath, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 6. All from 2 league matches away.

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last five meetings: four - one - zero (Dundee wins - draws - Arbroath wins). As for goals, two matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), three had two or less.
