Only a few games have been played in the League Two so far, with Stenhousemuir placed 3rd and Annan Athletic sitting in the 6th 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!
Stenhousemuir form and stats
OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Stenhousemuir's two home games in the League Two so far this season, having collected 4 points here at Ochilview Park.
Stenhousemuir faced defeat in their previous match, away at Alloa Athletic (2-4). Ahead of that match, Stenhousemuir lost 0-4 at home to Livingston.
Did Stenhousemuir get overconfident in their match against Alloa Athletic? We'll let you decide, but they did lose a 2-0 lead to end up with a 2-4 defeat. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?
The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Stenhousemuir have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found eight games) they have won three times, drawn three and lost two.
It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Stenhousemuir at home in the league. 4 on target and 2 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.
Annan Athletic form and stats
Things could have gone better for Annan Athletic in their League Two away matches, but 3 points from 2 games is all right.
A loss against Albion Rovers was the result prior to that, in a League Two home game.
As mentioned above, Annan was the only team on the pitch versus Albion Rovers in their previous game, winning 5-1. This could be a tougher task.
Annan Athletic are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is zero wins, zero draws and six defeats. From a total of six matches.
3 goals so far away for Annan Athletic, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 1. All from 2 league matches away.
Head 2 Head
As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's three Stenhousemuir victories, two draws and five Annan Athletic wins. Over/under statistics; six of these games ended with three goals or more, four matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
