Ayr United, Recent FormAyr United won't feel too deflated by the 1-0 away defeat to Dundee United, given that their opponents sit a full 14 places above them in the league table.
Manager Lee Bullen will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 6 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 9 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have been unable to score at home in 3 of their last 6 games, and so far this season they have conceded at least 1 goal in 12 of their 14 games overall.
They've had a terrible run of form at Somerset Park recently and having lost 4 of their last 6 home games managing just 1 win.
Goalscorer Anton Dowds will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 4 goals in his last 6 league matches for Ayr United.
Airdrieonians, Recent FormThe Airdrieonians players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their home fixture against Dunfermline Athletic recently, that ended in a 2-1 defeat.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 5 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 8 and seen valuable points lost. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
They've had a bad run of form away from home recently, having lost 4 of their last 6 on the road and managing just 1 win.
On an individual basis, Craig Watson will be looking to cause Ayr United some problems having scored 2 goals in Airdrieonians' last 6 away games in the league.
In the previous league meeting between these two sides, it was Ayr United that came out on top with a 1-2 win.
Ayr Utd have scored in each of their last 3 league meetings with The Diamonds.
In the last 3 league meetings between the teams, Ayr Utd has taken all 3 points and has not lost to Airdrie in 3 games.
With no real injury worries, Ayr Utd manager Lee Bullen will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Airdrie manager Rhys McCabe has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
