Recent respective form guides

Elgin City's woeful home form means they have chalked up just a single victory, with 5 defeats, from the last six. While City have scored 4, a worringly large 12 have been leaked at the other end.

Queens Park's away form is none too clever either, tasting just one defeat in their last six, and picking up four good wins. The games have constituted a decent return of 9 goals for the The Spiders, and 14 goals against.

Elgin City find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 28 games have yielded only 22 points. Queens Park lie just outside the playoff positions in the Irn Bru Scottish Division Three, picking up 40 from their 29 games so far.
