Edinburgh City Preview – Can Edinburgh claim vital win?
A 2-1 win away from home at Cowdenbeath ended Edinburgh’s four-match winless run in the Scottish fourth tier and secured a top four spot for he hosts prior to this weekend’s fixtures but Edinburgh need another result here on Friday night to stave off competition.
Recent losses to Annan Athletic and Forfar Athletic haven’t helped matters while the bigger picture shows that Edinburgh have managed to win just one of their last seven games on home soil.
However, Edinburgh City hold a decent record against Elgin City as they’re unbeaten in each of the previous 13 meetings against their visitors.
Elgin City Preview – Can Elgin win three on trot?
Recent back-to-back wins against Stirling Albion and Forfar Athletic have helped second from bottom outfit, Elgin City, maintain their 10-point cushion above basement dwellers, Cowdenbeath, prior to this upcoming clash away at Edinburgh City.
Elgin City have managed to win just five games all season to date though, three of which have been achieved on home turf at their Borough Briggs ground, while results on the road continue to be a major concern.
The visitors have won just two of their last 10 away games on the road and they could come unstuck again at Edinburgh on Friday night.
