Recent respective form guides
Ayr United's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. Honest Men have conceded a disappointing 7 goals in this period, and managed to convert only 3 of their own chances.
Cowdenbeath's away form is none too clever either, winning 2 of the last six, but losing the other 4. While the Blue Brazil have hit 5 goals, 10 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Ayr Utd. lie just outside the playoff positions in the Bells Scottish Division Two, picking up 30 points from their 26 games so far. Cowdenbeath are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 28 points from 24 matches.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Its been a distinctly poor show from Ayr Utd. at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Honest Men will at least gain a draw. No-score draw
