Recent respective form guides
Stranraer's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While The Blues have scored 6, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.
Elgin City's away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occasions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. The games have constituted a decent return of 10 goals for the City, and 18 goals against.
Stranraer see themselves just below half way in the Irn Bru Scottish Division Three, showing a record of 20 points from their 19 games played so far, Elgin City are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 18 points from 18 matches.

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