Recent respective form guides

Queen of the South's woeful home form means they have chalked up just a single victory, with 5 defeats, from the last six. While The Doonhamers have scored 5, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.

Stranraer's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While the The Blues have hit 5 goals, 8 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Queen o.t.S. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 7 points from 13 matches. Stranraer are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 10 points from 13 matches.
