History of the Clyde v Stranraer fixture

Clyde prepare to entertain Stranraer at Broadwood Stadium on Saturday afternoon, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 2 of the 22 previous games, with the Bully Wee winning just 10.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Broadwood Stadium was just last season, in August 2004, the Bully Wee carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a Scottish Challenge Cup match.
