Raith Rovers form and stats
4 victories, 2 draws and 2 defeats. That’s what Raith Rovers have to build on here at Stark's Park in the Championship.
Times are rough for the home team, having gone 180 minutes without scoring a league goal. J. Gullan was the last player to find the net. The Rovers goalkeeper Jamie MacDonald is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 256 minutes without conceding a goal in the Championship.
The home team returns to Stark's Park after being equal after 90 minutes with Inverness CT (placed 7th) on their last time out; the Championship game ended 0-0. Before that, Raith Rovers drew at home versus Ayr United.
The manager J. McGlynn will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Ayr United in only four days.
With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (16 in 8 games), Rovers's attacking play is working. On the other hand, Raith Rovers have conceded 10 goals.
Inverness CT form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Inverness CT so far with only 9 points returning home. The records show 2-3-4 (win-draw-lose).
The attacking players of Inverness CT have been feeble for some time now, the team not scoring a league goal in the last 243 minutes.
There were no winners in Inverness CT's previous match, a Championship home game that ended 0-0 vs Raith Rovers (placed 2nd). A loss against Greenock Morton was the result prior to that, in a home game.
The visitors will be packing their bags again in only four days as another away game awaits: The Championship trip to Dunfermline Athletic.
Inverness CT have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 9 league away games 13 goals have been scored. As opposed to that, Inverness have seen the ball go into their own net 13 times on the road.
