Competition: Scotland Football League

Match begins: 18:45 (UTC)
Venue: Falkirk Community Stadium (7937 seats)

Only the second game in the Football League for these teams and it's all to play for here at Falkirk Community Stadium as East Stirlingshire welcomes Vale of Leithen. Check out this preview!

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.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Vale of Leithen 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 1-0-7 (win-draw-loss) from eight matches.

East Stirlingshire form and stats

Last season, East Stirlingshire's league statistics were 8 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses, resulting in a 5th position in the Football League. Over these twelve matches they scored 30 goals and conceded 12. Playing at home last season East Stirlingshire managed 3-2-1 (win-draw-lost) with 10 goals and 6 conceded.

East Stirlingshire enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Gala Fairydean Rovers's place. The match ended 3-0.

Heartbreak before that as Stirlingshire lost 1-4 at Tranent Juniors's place.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Football League game versus Rangers II in only three days. This game is also played here at Falkirk Community Stadium.

Vale of Leithen form and stats

Let's have a look at how Vale of Leithen performed last season in the Football League: They landed a 17th position in the league table after playing out 0 victories, 0 draws and 12 defeats. In total they scored 5 and conceded 58 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 0 - drew 0 and lost 8 with 1/38 goals scored/conceded.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Football League home defeat versus Cumbernauld Colts with 0-4 on the scoreboard. As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Cumbernauld Colts was particularly ugly (0-4). The humiliation is still top of mind.

Preceding that game, the 0-9 loss visiting Edusport Academy's place.

Leithen has another fixture away, a Football League game, against BSC Glasgow in just three days. A tough schedule for the visitors!

Head 2 Head

Head-to-head totals (for the last five meetings): East Stirlingshire won four games, zero matches ended with a draw and Vale of Leithen has one win. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: five / zero
