Diamond1924 Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 Big game! We should be going into this full of confidence after the last 3 games. Predicting 1-3 Airdrie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ballboy Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 Both team will be going to Saturday with confidence. Alloa being the home team should be looking to win. The main thing with airdrie in recent weeks is the difference having josh rae back has made to the defence. Previously most mistakes were costing goals. Certainly has made a difference to the confidence. I don't predict a spade load of goals this week I settle for a tight 2 - 1 away win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless, out of the two teams AIRDRIE will be going into this with more confidence due to our scoring form which again, I must point is 18 goals in three games and not 7.

Chapelhall chap Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 Most folk will see this as a very tight and close encounter of the fourth kind this season ( hate this format of ten teams) and maybe a further set of play off possibilities Alloa have had the home edge over many of the last meetings, and I see it being a tough game for us to win. Confidence is certainly there for both sides and I suspect a scoring draw is likely. I've not yet predicted as I'm still on cloud nine reading P/B and watching reruns of KT setting off from deep for that marvellous second goal.

Tenkay Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 (edited) My neutral view of this game, on CURRENT FORM, is that Airdrie will outscore Alloa, something like 3-1. I'd prefer a draw myself, but think Alloa are not that good, and see Airdrie being too strong on this occasion.

Passionate Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 This really is crunch time 3 teams into 2 playoff slots don't go, Airdrie although last 3 games have been great against basically cannon fodder, Allo a especially at home are very decent, if we drop 3 points this week, we could be in deep trouble, with Dunfermline and Falkirk on the horizon, Edinburgh are up and down like a whores knickers, and they still have the aforementioned cannon fodder still to play Peter head and Clyde, I think 58 points will get 4 th place, this Saturday is pivotal, I would be happy enough with a draw, keeps Allo a close and Edinburgh behind.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FTFY Not looking forward to the possibility of meeting a 6th and 7th time but home advantage has been king as it stands. It's going to be fascinating to see how we set up as there has been 3 competent wins with our same lineup - but the left sided players are all returning from injury and there's been plenty of times we could have used a left footed delivery. Big decisions to be made. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dextermorgan Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 For me, Josh Rae in goals makes a huge difference to the side and had he been fit for most of the season I believe we would be pushing Dunfermline. I believe that we will offer enough of a goal threat on Saturday to win this quite comfortably despite being away from home. If we can nullify the arial threat from Alloa at set pieces then we should be fairly comfortable and this begs the question as to whether ATS will regain his position. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously though tough match with a really in form Airdrie should be a good game will go a good way to deciding the playoff places 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big decisions to be made. I'm assuming I missed out /forgot that Friday night cup game as it was such an unmemorable performance from us ! Will be hoping we get the play off spot despite all our travails over the year as well. Cheers 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapitalDiamond Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 We haven’t won at the Indodrill yet this year. Vital game in terms of both team’s push for the play offs. Tough one to call and will be closer than recent games 5-2 Airdrie 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhys McCabe Hype Train Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 No idea how to call this one. Would think it’s a must win for Airdrie to keep something in the bank with the last three games of the regular season. Saying that, though, I fancy a 6-6 draw. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
