Home - Annan Athletic
- Two mid-table sides face off in Scottish League Two 25-26 when Annan Athletic welcome FC Edinburgh to Galabank on Saturday afternoon.
- The hosts are in eighth with 28 points from 27 games, while the visitors are tenth with 21 from 28.
- Annan have failed to win either of their last two games at home, drawing once and losing once.
- Wullie Gibson’s Annan side are a very pragmatic side in the mold of many of the teams he has previously managed.
Away - FC Edinburgh
- Edinburgh are on a worse run away from home with no wins, one draw and two losses in their last three.
- FC Edinburgh’s coach Michael McIndoe has brought a faster-paced, attack-minded style to the club.
- Edinburgh have been playing a much higher tempo since Michael McIndoe took over as coach.
Head-to-Head
- The last three head-to-head meetings between these two sides have all finished as draws, including a 2-2 thriller at Edinburgh six weeks ago.
- FC Edinburgh have not won in their last two away visits to Annan Athletic.
Key Players
- Aidan Smith has been Annan’s main threat this season with eight goals in 26 League Two games, but young gun Tommy Goss has been in form for the club lately with two of Annan’s last six goals, coming in their past five games.
- Innes Lawson is the main scorer for Edinburgh with nine in 26 League Two appearances and is the man who has to be marked.
Betting Insights
- The odds for a draw are a slightly high 3.68, which is enough to get a small wager on that outcome.
- BTTS-Y looks more likely given the styles of these two teams and their recent form, with odds of 1.66.
- BTTS-Y is 1.66 and should be a good matchup bet for this one with the added pressure of Edinburgh’s insolvency-related points deduction giving this fixture an extra significance.
Prediction
With Annan failing to win in their last two home matches and Edinburgh’s recent away struggles, another draw could be on the cards.
