Clyde
- Darren Young's side have won two, drawn one and lost two of their last five matches, but the Bully Wee did just beat Dumbarton 2-1 here in their last league outing.
- Clyde are sitting pretty in second spot in the League Two 2026-2027 table with 20 points from ten matches and Annan, who are tenth, have nine points from the same number of games.
Annan
- The Black and Golds, who are on a two-match losing streak, have won one, drawn one and lost three of their last five and look unlikely to turn this one around.
- Annan have won just one of their four away trips in League Two 2026-2027, averaging just 0.50 goals scored, so their prospects look bleak.
Head-to-Head
- Clyde have won four of the last five head-to-head matches in League Two 2026-2027, while Annan have won none.
- Clyde recently beat Annan Athletic 2-1 away in League Two 2026-2027, and now welcome them to Broadwood Stadium.
Key Players
- Darren Young sets up in a narrow, proactive 4-2-3-1, high pressing and fast in transition.
- He has a red-hot striker to play through in Scott Williamson, who has nine goals in seven League Two 2026-2027 games, and his side will be all over Annan Athletic's defence from the off.
- Wullie Gibson has his team set up much more compactly and much deeper in a counter-first shape, so this is a press-versus-block matchup.
- Annan's Charlie Maxwell has three goals in eight League Two 2026-2027 appearances and could be a threat if he is fed the ball, but Clyde's Williamson is the real danger man and if he gets a couple, that should be enough to take the points.
Betting Insights
- Clyde to cover at 1.7 is the selection, but there is a slightly smarter angle to this matchup in Clyde to win with both teams to score no at 2.37.
- The Black and Golds have too much possession and power in this matchup and should overpower Annan at some point in the game, but Gibson's men will be tough to break down and are a big price at 4.2, so the win and clean sheet option looks the smart play.
Prediction
- Clyde beat Annan Athletic 2-1 in the corresponding fixture eight weeks ago, so that's the exact score prediction here.
- He has a red-hot striker to play through in Scott Williamson, who has nine goals in seven League Two 2026-2027 games, and his side will be all over Annan Athletic's defence from the off.
