Queen of the South, Recent FormBuilding up confidence within his squad will be a priority for Queen of the South supremo Marvin Bartley after sustaining a heavy 3-0 away loss to Kelty Hearts.
They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 6 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 7 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points. It's been rare for their fans not to have had something to shout about this season, with their team scoring in 11 out of 12 home games.
In terms of results, it's been a bit of a mixed bag for QOTS recently, having won 3 and lost 3 of their last 6 games.
Ruari Paton will be feeling confident about adding his name to the scoresheet once more at Palmerston Park, having notched up 5 goals for Queen of the South in their last 6 league matches at home.
Dunfermline Athletic, Recent FormDunfermline Athletic were forced to settle for a share of the points in their last league match, which wound up a 1-1 draw against Airdrieonians.
Manager James McPake will be delighted with his team's performances in front of goal, with them having scored 13 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 5 goals conceded in the same period. They are consistently finding a way through on goal, scoring in each of their last 12 games. When playing away from home this season, they have notched up a respectable 8 clean sheets.
Their strong run of form, both away and at home now gives them an unbeaten streak of 12 games in a row.
Matty Todd will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Dunfermline Athletic.
Despite both teams hitting the net in their previous encounter, the match ended in a 1-1 draw.
During the last 2 times these two teams have met in the league at Palmerston Park, QOTS have been unable to break through the visitor's defence and find the back of the net. The Pars will be confident of finding the net in this one against QOTS, with an impressive scoring record of at least 1 goal in their previous 5 encounters between the two sides. The Dunfermline defence tends to hold pretty firm when they visit The Doonhamers in the league, with Dunfermline conceding just 1 goal in their last 3 meetings.
QOTS has a poor track record in the league when they host Dunfermline, losing in their last 2 home games.
Nikolay Todorov has scored in each of Dunfermline's last league game against QOTS.
With no real injury worries, QOTS manager Marvin Bartley will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Dunfermline manager James McPake has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
