History of the Montrose v Annan Athletic fixture

Annan Ath. face a trip to Montrose at Links Park Ground on Saturday afternoon, and will hope to continue their unbeaten record at the ground. Out of their two previous meetings, the Black and Golds have won one, and drawn the other.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in January 2009, as the visitors ran out cosy 0 - 3 winners in a Scottish Division Three match.

Recent respective form guides

Montrose's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Gable Endies have scored 5, a worringly large 13 have been leaked at the other end.

Annan Ath.'s away form is none too clever either, accumulating just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While the Black and Golds have hit 5 goals, 10 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Montrose find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 14 games have yielded only 5 points. Annan Ath. lie just outside the playoff positions in the Irn Bru Scottish Division Three, picking up 19 from their 15 games so far.

Not a lot has been going right generally for Annan Ath. on their travels as of late, but I can certainly see them gleaning a point from their game against Montrose. No-score draw
