Saturday afternoon also brings us this top-of-the-table clash between 2nd placed Spartans and the league leading visitors, East Kilbride, when the two teams prepare to do battle at Ainslie Park with a precious three points at stake for both clubs in their pursuit of claiming the automatic promotion spot up to the Scottish League One next season.
Just one point separates Spartans from their upcoming opponents and Saturday’s hosts are in good form right now as Douglas Samuel’s side have suffered just the single defeat in their last six matches in Scottish League Two, that being a heavy 3-0 loss away from home at Dumbarton.
However, Spartans have also collected four important victories in recent weeks as well, picking up vital wins against Annan Athletic, Stirling Albion, Clyde and Forfar Athletic respectively, while also possessing a pretty good home record of 9-2-4 19/13.
East Kilbride returned to winning ways last weekend in the Scottish fourth tier, courtesy of a 3-2 home win against Stirling Albion which saw the visitors steady the ship after being dealt a 2-1 defeat away from home at Stranraer.
Mick Kennedy’s side have been handed just that single loss though in their previous nine league matches whilst collecting no fewer than eight wins in the process which has helped lift The Kilby to the top of the Scottish League Two table.
However, East Kilbride managed to avoid their promotion rivals Spartans within these previous nine matches and just as well, as the previous meeting against Saturday’s upcoming opponents thrashed them in a 6-0 victory at the K-Park Training Academy ground!
Interestingly, East Kilbride have returned the same record away from home as that of Spartans’ home record with an overall record of 9-2-4 34/21 to date.
The Betting Verdict
In what is expected to be a much tighter battle this time around, Spartans and East Kilbride could cancel each other out in a draw here.
The Pick :
Spartans 1-1 East Kilbride
