- James Weir’s side have been more pragmatic and organised in their style of play since he arrived at Station Park in November 2024, relying on their shape and set-pieces to create opportunities for their two strikers to pounce.

Betting Insights
- Forfar have been poor on the road this season, winning only two and losing six of their 11 games away from home, but Edinburgh have been worse with one win, four draws and seven defeats in 12 home games.
- Backing Forfar Athletic at 2.52 is a way to take advantage of the odds available here, but there’s more than enough to like about the Draw bet at 3.22, given Edinburgh’s dismal home record and Forfar’s two straight away defeats.
- Over 2.5 goals at 1.78 is also the bet to make with both teams conceding too many goals to avoid the over/under line.
Prediction
The visitors are a better side than FC Edinburgh in their current state and should just about edge it , although a home field advantage makes this a real toss-up.
