This match features two teams living in the basement of the League One, Montrose holding 10th place and Peterhead lying 8th. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!

Peterhead play their home games on grass, while this game is played on artificial turf. Recent stats for Peterhead when playing on artificial turf are 5 wins, 2 draws and 4 defeats from eleven matches. They have scored 28 goals and conceded 21 times in these games.

Montrose form and stats

Three League One home games done for Montrose, who are not happy collecting 0 points from these matches. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Montrose with their six defeats in a row. Not since the Stranraer game, 56 days ago, have they avoided a loss. Game days at Links Park have recently become somewhat of a nightmare for Montrose as they have lost three home games in a row. It hurts.

The fans are hoping that Montrose will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-2 away loss in the League One game against Forfar Athletic (placed 4th). Ahead of that match, Montrose lost 1-3 at home to East Fife.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Montrose have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found six matches with the results: Won 3 Drawn 1 Lost 2.

Montrose have scored 2 league goals here from 3 matches, not a lot. Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for Montrose with 6 goals conceded in these matches.

Peterhead form and stats

Peterhead are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the League One, having played 3 games and collected 4 points (1 win, 1 draw and 1 loss).

Peterhead's last game was the home draw against Clyde (1-1). A 0-4 defeat away at Raith Rovers before that.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Peterhead playing away and similar expectations, we found four relevant matches. Results were 1 Peterhead win, 2 draws and 1 defeat.

Peterhead have scored 3 goals on their travels this season, from 3 away games in the league. The Peterhead manager J. McInally has some worries about the defense as 6 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Montrose won 2 games, 2 matches ended with a draw and Peterhead has 6 wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: 6 / 4
