General comment about the game

In the Scottish division two Forfar welcomes bottom side Stenhousemuir. Forfar is quite a decent home side with wins in nearly half of the games. The two last home games however they have not won. The last game was against top team Airdrie and the game ended 3-1 to the visitors after a safe affair.  Forfar’s coach Ray Stewart is expecting to have a fully fit squad for the Stenhousemuir game and they are now ready to bounce back from the midweek defeat. Worth to mention here is also that Forfar has beaten Stenhousemuir two times in a row with 2-0. The first game this season was won by Stenhousemuir with the same result.

 

We betted against Stenhousemuir in one of our midweek bets, and that were surely a good thing since Dumbarton were up 3-0 already after 17 minutes, and the final result became 4-0. Stenhousemuir now has played 14 games on the road and only taken 7 points. With five straight defeats it is really hard to see why they start to play better. Ahead of this game there have been no reports about any important players missing.

 

We believe that Forfar will beat the fed up team from Stenhousemuir. But since this is Scottish division 2 we do as in midweek and stay on a stake of 2%.
