A Sports Betting Pick by ArmchairPunter
Football : Scotland: Championship
Venue: Ochilview Park
Saturday 31st January 2026, 1500hrs (GMT)
Queen’s Park will head into this upcoming Scottish Championship clash with Arbroath looking to avoid a fourth consecutive defeat in all competitions after recent losses at the hands of Stranraer and Raith Rovers (Championship & Challenge Cup).
Previously, Queen’s Park had been involved in numerous postponements but the hosts did manage a 2-0 home win against Forfar Athletic as well as previous wins in the Challenge Cup against Clyde and a Championship victory over Airdrieonians in a convincing 3-0 win away from home.
Queen’s Park have only managed to capture just one home win at Ochilview Park so far this season but The Spiders have also suffered just three defeats while the majority have resulted in stalemates within an overall record of 1-5-3 7/10.
Arbroath occupy 3rd place in the Scottish Championship but the visitors have failed to win any of their last two games in all competitions after losing on penalties to Airdrieonians in the Scottish Cup along with a 1-1 draw at home with Greenock Morton in the domestic second tier.
The visitors had previously registered back-to-back wins against Raith Rovers and East Fife but the bigger picture shows The Red Lichties have picked up just these two victories from their last six matches overall.
In addition, Arbroath possess an inconsistent record away from home of 5-2-5 14/16 on their travels and this suggests that Colin Hamilton’s side may not get everything their own way here on Saturday afternoon.
The Betting Verdict
Queen’s Park have won two of the last three meetings at home against Arbroath and the hosts look a decent option with the handicap.
The Pick :
Queens Park 2-2 Arbroath
