Hamilton Academical, Recent FormThere will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the Hamilton Academical players having failed to take any points away from their recent 2-0 away defeat at the hands of Cove Rangers.
They have bagged 7 goals in their last 6 matches but haven't taken the points they might have hoped for, primarily due to some indecisive defending that has seen their goal breached 17 times in that period. The art of scoring goals has eluded them, having failed to find the back of the net for the past 3 games in a row. Having shipped at least a single goal in 16 of their 18 league matches this season, they don't have an enviable defensive record this campaign.
Hamilton Academical will not be enjoying their recent run of poor form, having lost 5 league games in a row no wins in 7 games.
Raith Rovers, Recent FormA 2-2 draw and a point gained against Greenock Morton in their previous meeting will have been considered a fairly decent for Raith Rovers last time out.
Their boss Ian Murray is sure to be taking a close look at his defence, who have given away 13 goals over the last 6 matches and yet amazingly still managed to collect some valuable points during this poor defensive spell due to their 8 goals scored. They will need to tighten up at the back, having failed to keep a clean sheet in all but 1 of their last 6 away games.
They've had a bad run of form away from home recently, having lost 4 of their last 6 on the road and managing just 1 win.
Goalscorer Aidan Connolly will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 4 goals in his last 6 league matches for Raith Rovers.
It was one to forget for Hamilton Academical last time they met Raith Rovers in the league, falling to a 3-1 defeat.
The Rovers will be looking to extend their current run of 3 clean sheets at Fountain of Youth Stadium when they visit Hamilton. From their past 5 away matches in the league against Hamilton, The Rovers have managed to find the net with at least 1 goal and will be aiming to keep that streak going. Goals come easy for Raith when they travel to The Accies, having recorded 7 goals in their past 3 visits and an impressive average of 2.33 goals per match. The Accies have struggled to break down the Raith defence in their past encounters having only managed to find the back of the net 1 time in their last 5 meetings.
In the last 3 league meetings between the teams at Fountain of Youth Stadium, Raith has taken all 3 points and has not lost away to Hamilton in 3 games.
In front of goal, Ethan Ross has scored 2 goals in the previous 3 league matches for Raith against Hamilton at Fountain of Youth Stadium and will be confident of getting more of the same this time out.
With no real injury worries, Hamilton manager John Rankin will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Raith manager Ian Murray has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
