Raith Rovers form and stats

Let's have a look at how Raith Rovers performed last season in the Championship: They landed a 3rd position in the league table after playing out 12 victories, 7 draws and 8 defeats. In total they scored 45 and conceded 36 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 6 - drew 4 and lost 4 with 21/18 goals scored/conceded.

Rovers played 4-4 against Hamilton Academical in their previous match. Drawing 4-4 against Hamilton Academical after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 4-0. Their manager J. McGlynn needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result. As you can tell from the result, the match against Hamilton Academical was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 8 goals, will the fun continue today?

A 0-0 draw was the result before that, hosting Alloa Athletic (after extra-time, 5-4 on penalties) in the League Cup.

Head 2 Head

H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Inverness CT eight wins, two draws and Raith Rovers zero victories. As for goals, five matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), five games had two or less.
