The Form Book

Clydebank Red Star

Clydebank Red Star, currently sitting 11th out of 14 teams, have endured a mixed run of late. Their last five outings reflect the inconsistency that has plagued their season, showing a record of one win, one draw, and three losses. So far this season, the ‘Bankies have managed two wins and one draw from nine matches, leaving them on a modest seven points.

Clydeside AFC

In stark contrast, Clydeside Athletic arrive in disarray. Rooted to the bottom of the table in 13th place, their season has been nothing short of disastrous. With a crippling record of four losses from five in recent games and nine defeats from ten matches overall, they are stuck at the bottom of the league table.

Last weeks superb victory over Bishopton has however shown light at the end of the tunnel and this could be a sign of new beginnings.

Key Players

Prediction

Given the significant disparity in league standing and recent form, Red Star are overwhelming favourites to secure all three points. Their opponents’ run of nine losses before last Saturday’s win suggests a deep-seated vulnerability that the Holm Park side should be able to exploit.

The hosts will view this fixture as a prime opportunity to inject some much-needed momentum into their season.

HUGH’s PREDICTION

Clydeside Athletic will turn up to Holm Park with the smug confidence only a team with one win in ten can possess. Clydebank Red Star, reeling from the unexpected pressure of playing a team that isn’t statistically dead, will spend the entire first half passing the ball to the corner flag. In the end, the sheer weight of historical failure will catch up to Clydeside. Red Star will sneak a goal in the 88th minute that bounces off three different defenders and the referee’s head, preserving their favourite status and leaving both sets of fans thoroughly confused.

Final Score: Clydebank Red Star 5-5 Clydeside Athletic
