History of the Clyde v Cowdenbeath fixture

Clyde play host to Cowdenbeath at Broadwood Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Bully Wee are clearly on top, having won 14 and lost only 5 of the 22 games.

The last time the two teams met at Clyde was way back in the black-and-white days of July 1981, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a Scottish Division Two match.

Recent respective form guides

Clyde's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While Bully Wee have scored 5, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.

The away form of Cowdenbeath however, is much more impressive, tasting just one defeat in their last six, and picking up four good wins. The games have constituted a decent return of 10 goals for the Blue Brazil, and 4 goals against.

Clyde are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 11 points from 12 matches. Cowdenbeath are just outside the promotion places, in 2nd, having taken 21 points from 12 games.

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