Recent respective form guides
Forfar Athletic's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Loons have scored 5, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.
Montrose's away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occasions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. The games have constituted a decent return of 9 goals for the Gable Endies, and 4 goals against.
Forfar Ath. find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 23 games have yielded only 16 points. Montrose are just outside the promotion places, in 2nd, having taken 43 points from 25 games.
