Montrose look forward to challenge Dumbarton in this League One match. All you can know about the game is here!

Insights:
  • Montrose have the most clean sheets (3) in League One

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Dumbarton 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 8-5-10 (win-draw-loss) from 23 matches.
