Footymad preview History of the Clyde v Stranraer fixture

Clyde prepare to entertain Stranraer at Broadwood Stadium on Monday afternoon, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 2 of the 26 previous games, with the Bully Wee winning just 12.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Broadwood Stadium was less than a year ago, in February 2011, when they eased past their opponents in a high-scoring 4-2 thriller, in a Scottish Division Three match.

Recent respective form guides

Clyde's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Bully Wee have scored 8, a worringly large 12 have been leaked at the other end.

Stranraer's away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occasions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. Those games have seen the Blues pummel 16 goals, and let in 6.

Clyde see themselves just below half way in the Irn Bru Scottish Division Three, showing a record of 20 points from their 15 games played so far,

Stranraer are just outside the promotion places, in 2nd, having taken 30 points from 16 games.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Nothing seems to be going right for the Bully Wee at home recently, and we can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the Blues come away with an easy victory. Away win
