History of the Arbroath v Stenhousemuir fixture

Stenhousemuir face a trip to Arbroath at Gayfield Park on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Warriors will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 45 and win only 11 of the 71 games.

Recent respective form guides

Arbroath's woeful home form means they have chalked up just a single victory, with 5 defeats, from the last six. While The Red Lichties have scored 4, a worringly large 16 have been leaked at the other end.

The away form of Stenhousemuir is pretty dire, managing a paltry 2 draws from the last six matches. While the Warriors have hit 5 goals, 10 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Arbroath are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 11 points from 11 matches. Stenhousemuir find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 11 games have yielded only 10 points.
