vs

Montrose

Preview

Peterhead

• Peterhead have won three and lost two of their last five League One 2025/2026 games, and are one point above Montrose in 5th place.
• Peterhead’s average of 1.93 goals scored and 1.64 conceded per home game in League One 2025/2026 suggests there will be plenty of end-to-end action on Saturday.

Montrose

• Montrose have won two, drawn two and lost one of their last five, sitting in 6th place having played one game more than Peterhead.
• Montrose’s away stats of 1.27 scored and 1.80 conceded also point to both teams getting on the board at some point.
• Montrose are generally a patient team who like to build their way into games from the back and can be tough to break down as a result of Stewart Petrie’s long-term work at the club.

Head-to-Head

• The last meeting between the teams in League One 2025/2026 ended 1-1 at Montrose.
• Brown’s men are going up against a Montrose team in the top seven who they have failed to beat in any of the last five head-to-head meetings (D3, L2).

Key Players

• Kieran Shanks is the main man for Peterhead with 13 goals in 28 appearances in the league, while Montrose’s Callum Sandilands has nine in 29 and is another reliable pick in the anytime goalscorer market.
• Shanks has scored three goals in his last five games and has been involved in a third of his side’s last nine goals, so he looks a good choice to get on the scoreboard against Montrose this weekend.
