Montrose: 49 league matches in the bank, 13 from this season and the rest from last season. East Fife: 49 league matches in the bank, 13 from this season and the rest from last season.
The question this step asks
Step two is HOME AND AWAY FORM -- the home side judged on its home record, the away side on its away record, because those are the records that will be on the pitch. The last five reach back into last season where this season is too young to answer, and say so.
The two sides
Montrose -- at home
Its record at the relevant venue
This season at home: won 4, drew 0, lost 2 of 6, scoring 10 and conceding 12. Last season at home: won 7, drew 3, lost 8 of 18, scoring 24 and conceding 33 -- 1.33 points a game.
Its last five league matches
Newest first: drew with Hamilton Academical 1-1 away; beat Peterhead 3-0 at home; drew with East Kilbride 1-1 away; lost to Ross County 0-5 at home; lost to Airdrieonians 0-1 away.
The dugout
Every one of the 28 banked matches with a manager recorded was taken by Stewart Petrie. Who picks the team today is not yet recorded this season, so a summer change of manager would not show in these figures.
East Fife -- away
Its record at the relevant venue
This season away: won 0, drew 4, lost 2 of 6, scoring 4 and conceding 6. Last season away: won 3, drew 4, lost 11 of 18, scoring 13 and conceding 32 -- 0.72 points a game.
Its last five league matches
Newest first: beat Queen of the South 2-0 at home; lost to Hamilton Academical 1-2 away; lost to Alloa Athletic 0-3 at home; drew with Cove Rangers 1-1 away; lost to East Kilbride 0-3 at home.
The dugout
Every one of the 24 banked matches with a manager recorded was taken by Dick Campbell. Who picks the team today is not yet recorded this season, so a summer change of manager would not show in these figures.
