History of the Montrose v Berwick Rangers fixture

Montrose prepare to entertain Berwick Rangers at Links Park Ground on Saturday afternoon, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 22 of the 50 previous games, with the Gable Endies winning just 17.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Links Park Ground was less than a year ago, in February 2009, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a Scottish Division Three match.

Montrose's disastrous home run has meant they have managed only 2 draws from the last six matches. Gable Endies have conceded a disappointing 11 goals in this period, and managed to convert only 3 of their own chances.

Berwick Rgrs.'s away form is none too clever either, with two wins, two draws, and two defeats. The Borderers's have a narrow positive goal difference over these games, with 11 goals for and 10 against.

Montrose find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 13 games have yielded only 5 points. Berwick Rgrs. are just outside the promotion places, in 2nd, having taken 24 points from 13 games.
