Recent respective form guides

Montrose's woeful home form means they have chalked up just a single victory, with 5 defeats, from the last six. While Gable Endies have scored 8, a worringly large 12 have been leaked at the other end.

The away form of Stenhousemuir is pretty dire, collecting just 1 solitary point from the last six. While the Warriors have hit 5 goals, 17 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Montrose see themselves just below half way in the Bells Scottish Division Three, showing a record of 23 points from their 22 games played so far, Stenhousemuir's 25 points from 21 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 5th position.
