East Fife face a trip to Albion Rovers at Cliftonhill Stadium on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Fifers will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them ending up on the losing side in more than half of the games played between the two.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in August 2003, the Wee Rovers carving out a narrow 1 - 0 victory in a Scottish Challenge Cup match.

Recent respective form guides
Albion Rovers's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Wee Rovers have scored 13, a worringly large 17 have been leaked at the other end.
East Fife's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While the Fifers have hit 4 goals, 8 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Albion Rvs. find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 1 games have yielded only 0 points. East Fife's 3 points from 1 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 5th position.
