History of the Montrose v Clyde fixture

Clyde travel to take on Montrose at Links Park Ground on Saturday afternoon, having the edge over their hosts in previous meetings. The visitors have won 9 of the 19 previous games, with the hosts winning just 5.

The last time the two teams met at Montrose was just over four years ago, in August 2006, as the visitors ran out cosy 0 - 3 winners in a Scottish Challenge Cup match.

Recent respective form guides

Montrose's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Gable Endies have scored 7, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.

Clyde's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. The Bully Wee's have scored 7 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 9.

Montrose find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 6 games have yielded only 4 points. Clyde are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 5 points from 6 matches.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Not a lot has been going right generally for Clyde on their travels as of late, but I can certainly see them gleaning a point from their game against Montrose. Score draw
