Recent respective form guides
Stenhousemuir's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While Warriors have scored 7, a worringly large 15 have been leaked at the other end.
Stranraer's away form is none too clever either, accumulating just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While the The Blues have hit 8 goals, 14 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Stenhousemuir lie just outside the playoff positions in the Irn Bru Scottish Division Three, picking up 10 points from their 6 games so far. Stranraer are just outside the promotion places, in 2nd, having taken 12 points from 6 games.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Its been a distinctly poor show from Stenhousemuir at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Warriors will at least gain a draw. Score draw
