Montrose prepare to entertain Stenhousemuir at Links Park Ground on Saturday afternoon, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 24 of the 59 previous games, with the Gable Endies winning just 21.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Links Park Ground was less than a year ago, in April 2007, as the Gable Endies squeezed past their rivals by a scoreline of 3-2 in a Scottish Division Three match.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Its not been a very profitable last few weeks for Montrose, and I'm afraid the Footymad team cannot see it getting too much better here. Look no further than honours being even at the end of this one. Score draw
