The Scottish lower leagues also offer up some betting opportunities as Annan Athletic take on Brechin City as the betting tips continue in League Two at Galabank.
Annan Athletic Prediction – Can Annan continue strong form at home?
Tuesday night’s hosts, Annan Athletic, currently sit mid-table in the Scottish League Two after posting some mixed results in recent weeks which have seen the hosts collect wins against Queen’s Park and Cowdenbeath, but have also fallen to defeats to Cove Rangers and Elgin City.
However, it should be noted that both of the aforementioned defeats for Annan were incurred on their travels where they’ve lost 4 of their first 6 matches on the road, but form and results on home turf at Galabank have been more impressive.
A solid looking home record of 2-3-0 6/4 has given Annan a good start to this new campaign, and indeed, the Galabankies have now put together an excellent 15-match unbeaten sequence at home in the fourth tier and are a tough team to beat in their own backyard.
Annan Athletic have also recorded a recent win against tonight’s opponents, Brechin City, in the 2nd round of the Scottish FA Cup, winning the replay 2-0 away from home, while the hosts are also unbeaten in the previous three meetings against Brechin City.
Brechin City Prediction – Can Brechin avenge recent cup defeat?
Having won just 2 of their first 11 matches of the new Scottish fourth tier season, Brechin City find themselves bottom of League Two with just 7 points to their name ahead of this important Tuesday night clash with Annan Athletic at Galabank.
The visitors have managed to scrape just 1 win out of their last 7 matches overall which was a 2-1 home win against Elgin City, but defeats to Cowdenbeath, Cove Rangers, Stenhousemuir, Edinburgh City and Queen’s Park have left Brechin 3 points adrift of second from bottom club, Stirling Albion.
As well as conceding the joint second highest number of goals to date in the division (23 goals), Brechin City also possess a poor away record that reads a disappointing 1-0-4 5/10 and includes losing their last 3 away matches on the trot.
Indeed, Brechin City have won just 1 of their last 8 away matches in this division and they look to have their work cut out if they’re to get anything out of Annan Athletic on Tuesday night.
Key-Facts – Annan Athletic vs Brechin City
- Annan Athletic are unbeaten in their last 15 matches at home in League Two
- Brechin City have won just 1 of their last 8 away matches in League Two
