Stirling vs Forfar Athletic Prediction & Betting Tips (5 October)

High-flying Stirling have been in tremendous form on their own patch of late, securing six wins in eight matches, and they are unbeaten in seven top-flight fixtures against these opponents, winning three of the last four. Forfar Athletic, meanwhile, have found the going tough on their League Two travels for quite some time, recording just three wins in 20 games.

Under 2.5 goals has been the order of the day in 15 of the previous 15 Stirling home matches in the League Two, including in nine games on the bounce of late. Although they cannot compete with these numbers, it remains the case that 15 of the most recent 20 Forfar Athletic fixtures at this level have also served up two goals or fewer, so expect more of the same.

At least one of the two goalkeepers has emerged with a clean sheet from 15 of the previous 18 league games involving Forfar Athletic, and both of their meetings with Stirling last season finished goalless. Speaking of the hosts, eight of their most recent 15 home matches have followed the same pattern, so anyone expecting a thriller is likely to be disappointed by this contest.
