FootyMAD's East Fife match preview

History of the East Fife v Stenhousemuir fixture

Stenhousemuir face a trip to East Fife at Bayview Stadium on Saturday morning, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Warriors will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them ending up on the losing side in more than half of the games played between the two.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in March 2006, the Fifers carving out a narrow 2 - 1 victory in a Scottish Division Three match.
