Stranraer's away form is none too clever either, collecting 1 win and 3 draws from the last six played. While the The Blues have hit 6 goals, 11 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Raith Rovers's total of 5 points from their 3 games sees them sitting in the playoff places in Bells Scottish Division Two. Stranraer lie just outside the playoff positions in the Bells Scottish Division Two, picking up 4 from their 3 games so far.
