Elgin’s recent unbeaten run of five games, highlighted by a 4-0 win over Stirling, gives them the edge in a fixture that the model deems most likely to end in a home victory.

Elgin’s home form shows they average one goal scored and 0.75 conceded against weaker opposition, while Stranraer, playing away against a stronger side, averages 0.55 goals scored and 2.27 conceded. The model assigns a 51% chance to a home win, a 27% chance to a draw and a 22% chance to an away win.
