Recent respective form guides
Stenhousemuir's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While Warriors have scored 4, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.
East Fife's away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occassions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. The games have constituted a decent return of 9 goals for the Fifers, and 8 goals against.
Stenhousemuir are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 10 points from 10 matches. East Fife are holding the final promotion place in the Bells Scottish Division Two, and have accumulated 19 points from the 10 games they have played so far.
