Forfar have managed just 19 goals across that spread of fixtures while shipping 42, with some heavy away defeats mixed in among a couple of eye-catching cup wins. Bo'ness have been busier at both ends, scoring 31 and conceding 41, including a run of high-scoring Lowland League results.

Neither side looks settled defensively, which is worth bearing in mind heading into this one.

Could goals flow at both ends?

Looking back through both teams' matches, extreme scorelines keep cropping up. Forfar have been on the wrong end of a 0-4 and a couple of 0-3 defeats, but also smashed in eight goals away at Livingston earlier in the year.

Bo'ness have shipped five in one match and conceded four in another, yet they've also won games 4-1 and 3-2 recently. Put that pattern together with their shared defensive wobbles, and this looks like a fixture where either side could find the net more than once.
