General match analysis

Stenhousemuir are unbeaten this season, with a record of 4 wins and 1 draw, and have won 4 of their last five matches. At home, the hosts have won both games, scoring an average of 2.5 goals and conceding just 0.5, while Arbroath score only 0.67 goals away from home and allow opponents 2.33 goals per match. The difference in chance quality is reflected in the average xG: 1.39 for Stenhousemuir at home compared with 0.91 for Arbroath away. The visitors have failed to score in 67% of their away matches and have kept no clean sheets on the road, which, combined with the hosts’ 28% conversion rate, strongly points towards a win for the league leaders. Arbroath do average 65% possession away from home, but this translates into just 5 shots per match, so they should struggle to make effective use of that advantage.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

BTTS is below the league average: both teams have recorded this outcome in 33% of their matches this season, compared with 38% across the competition. Stenhousemuir keep a clean sheet in 67% of their home matches and concede just 0.33 goals on average there, while Arbroath fail to score in 67% of their away games. The visitors score only 0.67 goals per away match, with an xG of 0.91; additionally, they have averaged just 0.8 goals over their last five fixtures. The hosts are in good form, with 7 goals scored and 4 conceded in their last 5 matches, but their low xG of 0.98 over this period supports a controlled win rather than an open game in which both sides score. The most likely scenario is therefore BTTS - No, primarily due to the high risk that Arbroath will fail to breach the hosts’ well-organised defence.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

Stenhousemuir defend very well at home, conceding an average of just 0.33 goals and keeping a clean sheet in 67% of such matches. Arbroath score only 0.67 goals per away game, while their average xG stands at 0.91, limiting the visitors’ projected goal tally to around 0.72. The hosts should benefit from their opponents’ weak defensive record, with Arbroath conceding an average of 2.33 goals away from home; however, Stenhousemuir’s own average xG of 0.51 does not suggest a high-scoring game. The 3.5-goal line was not exceeded in 100% of Stenhousemuir’s home matches and 67% of Arbroath’s away games, while the league-wide average is just 2.03 goals. The projected total of 2.00 goals and the low percentage of league matches featuring at least three goals, at 24%, strongly support the Under 3.5 goals bet.

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

The strongest scenario is a draw at half-time followed by a Stenhousemuir win at full-time, as the hosts have drawn the first half in all three of their home matches so far, scoring and conceding no goals before the break. Arbroath concede an average of 1.33 goals in the first half away from home, but their last five matches have produced a half-time draw in 60% of cases, which still supports the prospect of a cautious opening. After the break, the hosts’ advantage becomes significantly more pronounced: they score an average of 0.67 goals and concede just 0.33, while Arbroath allow opponents an average of 1.00 goal in the second half away from home. Stenhousemuir have won four of their last five matches, scoring an average of 1.4 goals and conceding 0.8, whereas Arbroath concede an average of 2.33 goals per match away from home.
