Recent respective form guides
Elgin City's home form is most definitely relegation standard, collecting just 1 solitary point from the last six. City have conceded a disappointing 12 goals in this period, and managed to convert only 3 of their own chances.
Albion Rvs.'s away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occasions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. The games have constituted a decent return of 8 goals for the Wee Rovers, and 6 goals against.
Elgin City find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 20 games have yielded only 9 points. Albion Rvs. lie just outside the playoff positions in the Irn Bru Scottish Division Three, picking up 29 from their 20 games so far.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Nothing seems to be going right for the City at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the Wee Rovers come away with an easy victory. Away win
