Recent respective form guides

Ayr United's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Honest Men have scored 6, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.

Airdrie Utd.'s away form is none too clever either, picking up two good wins, but losing three, from the last six. While the The Diamonds have hit 6 goals, 9 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Ayr Utd. find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 4 games have yielded only 2 points. Airdrie Utd. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 2 points from 4 matches.
