Stirling University form and stats
With 1 Football League win, 0 draws and 7 defeats from their home games, Stirling University are certainly not brimming with confidence. When Stirling University hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Edinburgh University, Gretna 2008, Cumbernauld Colts, Stirling University and BSC Glasgow), they have won 1 of 2 matches! Stirling University are slowly digging their own grave here at Forthbank Stadium with the depressing streak of not having won a home league game in seven attempts. The last victory here came in the Gretna 2008 match.
It's back home for Stirling, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Bo'ness United away with the result 3-2.
A 1-1 draw away before that, with East Stirlingshire the opponent.Stirling have scored 7 league goals here from 8 matches, not a lot. Defensively there's plenty of potential for improvement as Stirling have allowed the opposition to score 20 goals here at Forthbank Stadium.
Vale of Leithen form and stats
Vale of Leithen have only collected 1 point from their away games in the Football League, after 0-1-9 (10 played). Leithen are desperate to end a 20-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the Cumbernauld Colts fixture.
Leithen might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Spartans proved too strong as Vale of Leithen slumped to a 1-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Victoria Park.
Preceding that game, the 0-2 loss visiting Bonnyrigg Rose Athletic's place.Leithen are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 2 goals from 10 away games. It's worth mentioning that 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. There are big problems for the Leithen defense as they have conceded 45 goals in 10 away games. When Leithen is visiting a side on the bottom half, 2 of 3 matches have ended with three or more goals. These are matches against Edinburgh University, Gretna 2008, Vale of Leithen, Cumbernauld Colts and BSC Glasgow.
