Dunfermline Athletic form and stats
Dunfermline Athletic's struggle is real here at East End Park with only 4 points collected from 6 Championship games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 0-4-2. All in all it has been a very rough period for Dunfermline who hasn’t won a league-game in their last 14 attempts. Their previous win was against Raith Rovers, 185 days ago.
Dunfermline lost their last game at Arbroath (placed 3rd) after a 2-4 scoreline. A disaster for the home team in their last match (vs Arbroath) as a comfortable lead 2-0 was completely ruined into a loss 2-4. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?
The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 1-1 versus Raith Rovers.This is expected to be a close game, with Dunfermline Athletic perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage.
