Recent respective form guides
East Fife's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While Fifers have scored 5, a worringly large 8 have been leaked at the other end.
Brechin City's away form is none too clever either, collecting just 4 draws from the last six contests. The The City's have scored 6 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 8.
East Fife see themselves just below half way in the Irn Bru Scottish Division Two, showing a record of 20 points from their 17 games played so far, Brechin City's total of 23 points from their 16 games sees them sitting in the playoff places in Irn Bru Scottish Division Two.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Its been a distinctly poor show from East Fife at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Fifers will at least gain a draw. No-score draw
