Brechin City face a trip to East Fife at Bayview Stadium on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The The City will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 35 and win only 12 of the 57 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in December 2008, the Fifers carving out a narrow 2 - 1 victory in a Scottish Division Two match.

Recent respective form guides
East Fife's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Fifers have scored 6, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.
Brechin City's away form is none too clever either, winning 2 of the last six, but losing the other 4. While the The City have hit 9 goals, 13 have hit the back of the wrong net.
