- The odds for an away win for Stirling are a good price at 3.66.
- But with both teams to score coming in at 1.61, we’d rather take that and the Over 2.5 goals line at 1.69, which seems fair considering both sides will get the blood flowing in this important league clash.

- we’re taking the visitors to take the momentum from their weekend win over these opponents and go on to claim another away win.
