Just three points separate Saturday’s 3rd placed hosts Raith Rovers and their 5th placed visitors Ayr United ahead of this upcoming clash in the Scottish Championship as the domestic second tier season starts to take shape.
Raith Rovers were handed a 2-0 loss away from home at Ross County in last weekend’s action in the Championship while the wider picture shows the hosts have produced a mixed set of results so far in this season’s campaign.
Raith Rovers have picked up four wins, two draws but also three defeats and although Barry Robson’s side have collected wins against Ayr United, Dunfermline, Greenock Morton and Arbroath, The Rovers have also succumbed to losses at the hands of Partick Thistle, St Johnstone and aforementioned Ross County.
Ayr United have produced a stubborn but resilient start to this season’s Scottish Championship campaign as Scott Brown’s side have picked up two wins, five draws and lost just once so far this term.
That singular defeat came in the form of a 1-0 loss at home to Raith Rovers but since then, Ayr United have embarked upon a solid looking six-match unbeaten sequence which includes important victories over Dunfermline and Airdrieonians respectively.
In addition, the visitors still remain undefeated on the road as Scott Brown’s charges possess an away record of 1-3-0 4/3 so far this season which suggests The Honest Men stand a decent chance of getting something out of this upcoming encounter.
The Betting Verdict
Raith Rovers have won three of the last four meetings but Ayr United look a stubborn and tough to beat unit under Scott Brown.
