Recent respective form guides

Ayr United's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Honest Men have scored 5, a worringly large 12 have been leaked at the other end.

Queen o.t.S.'s away form is none too clever either, winning and losing 3 each of the last six games. The The Doonhamers's have a narrow positive goal difference over these games, with 11 goals for and 9 against.

Ayr Utd. find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 12 games have yielded only 7 points. Queen o.t.S. are leading the way in the Irn Bru Scottish Division One, with their 12 games giving them a return of 23 points.
