Edinburgh City, Recent FormHaving taken all 3 points, with a crucial 2-1 away win over Falkirk in their last league game, FC Edinburgh will undoubtedly be very satisfied with their work.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 5 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 8 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They have not been performing well at all defensively, not delivering a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 matches.
They've had a terrible run of form at Meadowbank Stadium recently and having lost 4 of their last 6 home games managing just 1 win.
Kelty Hearts, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 1-0 home defeat by Alloa Athletic will have left the Kelty Hearts squad feeling a little deflated.
Having scored just 2 goals in their last 6 games, it will be glaringly obvious to their manager John Potter where he needs to focus his attentions if they are going to get more points on the table, although he will still have one eye on his defence which have shipped 9 in the same period. Away goals have been high on their agenda recently, having scored in 4 of their last 6 away league games. They are providing themselves with a good foundation for decent results away from home with their recent run of 2 clean sheets.
They've drawn their last 2 league games away from home, but their search for a league win on the road extends even further having gone 5 consecutive games without grabbing all 3 points.
Goalscorer Kallum Higginbotham will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 4 goals in his last 6 league matches for Kelty Hearts.
Last time these two teams met in the league it ended in disappointment for Kelty Hearts, losing 1-2 to FC Edinburgh.
Edinburgh will be confident of finding the net in this one against The Jambos, with an impressive scoring record of at least 1 goal in their previous 6 encounters between the two sides.
Kelty Hearts have lost the last 3 times they've faced Edinburgh in the league and have failed to win in their last 5 encounters.
Kelty Hearts man Jamie Barjonas will be confident about extending his scoring record against Edinburgh, having hit the netting 3 times in the last 5 times they have met in the league.
With no real injury worries, Edinburgh manager Alan Maybury will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Kelty Hearts manager John Potter has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
