Venue: Indodrill Stadium (3100 seats)

This fixture features two participants living in the carpet of the Football League - Lowland League, BSC Glasgow at 14th position and Cumbernauld Colts in 16th. A decent opportunity for one of the teams to better their position.

Insights:
  • BSC Glasgow have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Cumbernauld Colts haven’t played a single 0-0 game away.

Not a lot of time to rest for the host team, as they had a Football League - Lowland League match only four days ago. Thankfully the previous game, versus East Kilbride, was also a home game here at Indodrill Stadium. The away team is better rested.

BSC Glasgow form and stats

With 2 Football League - Lowland League wins, 2 draws and 6 defeats from their home games, BSC Glasgow are certainly not brimming with confidence. When BSC Glasgow hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Edinburgh University, Gretna 2008, Vale of Leithen, Stirling University and BSC Glasgow), they have won 1 of 2 matches! Problems are piling up for Glasgow as they are struggling in their away games as well, taking their total losing streak to a running total of seven games. This streak could be one for the history books.

BSC Glasgow's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-4 versus East Kilbride (placed 4th). Glasgow were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

Prior to that, an away loss at Berwick Rangers.

Glasgow has scored 11 league goals at home this season, in 10 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 17 goals have been conceded.

Cumbernauld Colts form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Cumbernauld Colts so far with only 10 points returning home. The records show 3-1-7 (win-draw-lose).

Cumbernauld Colts might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Spartans proved too strong as Cumbernauld Colts slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at Broadwood Stadium.

Before that, Cumbernauld secured a home win against Civil Service Strollers with the score 3-1.

The travelling fans enjoy Cumbernauld's attacking play in away games, having scored 18 goals in 11 league matches away. Cumbernauld have conceded 25 goals in these games. When Cumbernauld is visiting a side on the bottom half, 2 of 2 matches have ended with three or more goals. These are matches against Edinburgh University, Gretna 2008, Vale of Leithen, Cumbernauld Colts and Stirling University.
