History of the Airdrie United v Queen of the South fixture

Airdrie Utd. prepare to entertain Queen of the South at Shyberry Excelsior Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The The Diamonds are clearly on top, having won 19 and lost only 9 of the 37 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Shyberry Excelsior Stadium was less than a year ago, in April 2006, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a Scottish Division One match.

Recent respective form guides

Airdrie United have only collected 1 win and 3 draws from the last six home games played. The The Diamonds's have scored 7 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 9.

Queen o.t.S.'s away form is none too clever either, with two wins, two draws, and two defeats. A generous 7 goals have been both scored and conceded in this period.

Airdrie Utd. find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 2 games have yielded only 0 points. Queen o.t.S. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 0 points from 2 matches.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Its been a distinctly poor show from Airdrie Utd. at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the The Diamonds will at least gain a draw. Score draw
