East Fife prepare to entertain East Stirlingshire at Bayview Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Fifers are clearly on top, having won 35 and lost only 7 of the 56 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Bayview Stadium was less than a year ago, in January 2007, as the visitors ran out cosy 0-2 winners in a Scottish Division Three match.
