Spartans form and stats

The away team have been very comfortable on their travels so far, racking up 8 wins, 1 draw and only 2 losses in the Football League.

Spartans go into this game after a win, the home game against Dalbeattie Star that ended 5-2. As you can tell from the result, the match against Dalbeattie Star was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 7 goals, will the fun continue today?

A 1-7 defeat away at Rangers U21 before that.

Spartans have scored more than twice on average per away game (in the league), an impressive attacking display. They have 24 goals from 11 away matches. Spartans's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 17 goals from these trips. It's worth mentioning that 9 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
