Recent respective form guides

Montrose's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Gable Endies have scored 7, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.

The away form of Elgin is pretty dire, losing every single one of the last six matches played! While the City have hit 5 goals, 21 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Montrose are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 1 points from 3 matches. Elgin see themselves just below half way in the Bells Scottish Division Three, showing a record of 3 points from their 3 games played so far,
