Recent respective form guides

Dunfermline Athletic's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Pars have scored 6, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.

Clyde's away form is none too clever either, accumulating just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. Bully Wee have conceded 12 goals in these games, and only hit 3 in reply.

Dunfermline A. are just outside the promotion places, in 3rd, having taken 50 points from 35 games. Clyde find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 35 games have yielded only 38 points.
