- The hosts will be looking to close out this game by being compact and making it as hard as possible for the opposition to break them down, then when they do win the ball, they will look to play with pace and directness.
FC Edinburgh
- FC Edinburgh are the worst performing team in the league, sitting bottom (10th) with just 21 points from their opening 34 games.
- Michael McIndoe has been at the helm of Edinburgh since October 2023 and his side’s recent five-game losing streak (3-0 loss to Spartans FC, 2-0 loss to Clyde and 4-0 loss to East Kilbride) has shown that they’ve had trouble converting possession into results.
Head-to-Head
- The last meeting between these sides ended 0-0 at FC Edinburgh's ground seven weeks ago.
- The recent matchup history has seen one win per side and three games ending all square.
Key Players
- Martin Rennie leads the line for the home side and has scored 11 in 31 League Two games this season but has seen a resurgence from Jake Sutherland who has scored two of their last six goals.
- Innes Lawson has been a key figure for FC Edinburgh, scoring nine goals in 30 League Two matches, but he will be hard pressed to get much joy against the Forfar defensive line.
Betting Insights
The odds for a home win are 1.21 , for under 2.5 goals they’re 2.28 and for both teams to not score they are 1.71 .
Prediction
- We are confident that Forfar will come out on top in this one as they have been in better form of late and have been very solid defensively.
- FC Edinburgh are coming off the back of two consecutive away losses and have struggled on the road this season, winning seven, drawing four and losing six times.
- We expect a cagey game with a home victory at full time.
