One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting East Kilbride have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 6-4-2 (win-draw-loss) from twelve matches.
