Queen's Park's early-season form puts them well below Dunfermline in the current table.

How this one might play out
Queen's Park will want home advantage to count for something after a difficult start to the campaign, and they'll need to tighten up defensively given how often they've been conceding.
Dunfermline arrive with the better league position, a stronger recent head-to-head record, and a tidier goals-against tally. None of that guarantees anything once the match kicks off, but it does frame Dunfermline as the side with more going for them on paper.

Taken together, the league position, the head-to-head trend and the defensive numbers all point the same way. That's a reasonably consistent picture built from the data available.
Without a quoted market to assess, though, there's no sensible way to turn that picture into a concrete recommendation here.
