Arbroath, Recent FormLosing 1-0 home to Partick Thistle won't leave the Arbroath squad too downbeat, given the former sits a full 7 places above them in the league.
Jim McIntyre, their chief, will be doing some careful analysis of his defence, who have seen their goal breached 19 times in their last 6 games while somehow managing to pick up some points along the way with 6 goals scored. They have been unable to score at home in 3 of their last 6 games, and so far this season they have conceded at least 1 goal in 25 of their 29 games overall.
It's been a bad run of form of late for them, having racked up 4 losses and only a single victory in their last 6 league matches, so they'll need to turn things around if they want to start climbing the table. They've shown terrible form at Gayfield Park this season, losing 8 of their 14 home league games.
Dunfermline Athletic, Recent FormDunfermline Athletic will be happy to take away 3 points from their last match, with an important 1-0 away win against Greenock Morton.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 6 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 5, and leading to valuable points being dropped. So far this season they have conceded a goal at least once in 24 of their 30 games.
It's been a mixed run of away form for Dunfermline recently, with 2 wins and 2 defeats in their last 6 games on the road.
Matty Todd will be hoping to create problems for Arbroath in this one, having scored 2 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for Dunfermline Athletic.
Despite both teams hitting the net in their previous encounter, the match ended in a 1-1 draw.
Away from home, The Pars have shipped at least one goal to Arbroath in each of their previous 4 league matches against them.
This fixture has produced a draw on the last 2 occasions that these 2 sides have met in the league, but Dunfermline hold a slight psychological advantage of being unbeaten in their last 3 meetings.
Arbroath player Michael McKenna will be feeling confident about recording goals against Dunfermline ahead of this encounter, with a scoring record of 4 goals from their last 5 meetings.
Arbroath 1 - 5 Dunfermline AthleticWith no real injury worries, Arbroath manager Jim McIntyre will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Dunfermline manager James McPake has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
