Stranraer are ready to welcome St. Johnstone to Stair Park on Saturday afternoon, determined to stop the rot against their opponents, having tasted the bitter pill of defeat in 11 of the 14 contests.
The previous match played between the two at Stair Park was more than three years back, in September 2002, as the visitors ran out cosy 1-3 winners in an Scottish League Cup match.

Recent respective form guides
Stranraer's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While The Blues have scored 6, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.
St. Johnstone's away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occassions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. The Saints's have scored 10 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 11.
Stranraer see themselves just below half way in the Bells Scottish Division One, showing a record of 8 points from their 7 games played so far, St. Johnstone's 11 points from 7 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 4th position.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Nothing seems to be going right for the The Blues at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the Saints come away with an easy victory. Away win
