Recent respective form guides

Stenhousemuir's disastrous home run has meant they have managed only 2 draws from the last six matches. While Warriors have scored 5, a worringly large 15 have been leaked at the other end.

Forfar's away form is none too clever either, with 3 victories and just 1 loss from the last six. Just 7 goals have scored in these games, though to be fair only a measly 4 have been let in at the wrong end.

Stenhousemuir find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 3 games have yielded only 1 points. Forfar's 4 points from 3 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 5th position.
