It's game two of the Football League - Lowland League campaign and everything to play for. Check out our in-depth preview of Berwick Rangers-Gretna 2008!
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Berwick Rangers form and stats
Last season, Berwick Rangers's league statistics were 17 wins, 3 draws and 14 losses, ending with 8th place in the Football League - Lowland League. During these 34 matches they scored 75 goals and gave away 46. Performing at their own stadium in the previous season Berwick Rangers produced 10-2-5 (win-draw-lost) with 43 goals and 22 conceded.
A nice win for Berwick Rangers last time playing, versus Celtic II. That was also a home game and the match ended 1-0.
A defeat was the result before that one, 0-6 away at Hearts U21.The manager Malcolm will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Tranent Juniors in only three days.
Gretna 2008 form and stats
Let's have a look at how Gretna 2008 performed last season in the Football League - Lowland League: They landed a 17th position in the league table after playing out 2 victories, 5 draws and 27 defeats. In total they scored 36 and conceded 109 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 1 - drew 2 and lost 14 with 18/53 goals scored/conceded.
It might be tough going out on the road again for Gretna 2008, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-6 versus Edusport Academy (placed 11th). Gretna 2008 lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-6 beating and focus on this one.
A loss against Stirling University was the result prior to that, in a home game.Head 2 Head
As for the last seven games between these two teams, there's four Berwick victories, two draws and one Gretna 2008 wins. Over/under statistics; four of these games ended with three goals or more, three matches with two goals or less.Berwick Rangers missing players
