History of the Stranraer v Dundee fixture

Stranraer prepare to entertain Dundee at Stair Park on Saturday afternoon, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 2 of the 4 previous games, with the The Blues winning just 1.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Stair Park was earlier this season, when they played out a goalless draw in a Scottish Division One match.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Its a close one to call, but I think that The Blues's reasonable showing at home is going to see them scrape past Dundee. Home Win
