DUMBARTON-ARBROATH


No surprises here, we can hardly desert Arbroath now, they have served us very well and are in fantastic form, winning 9 of their last 10 starts.


The best away side in the division, they can close to within one point of leaders Berwick, with 3 points tonight, those two are set to meet on April 21, in what looks set to be a title decider.


Arbroath are finding the net with regularity and have notched 12 goals in their last 4 fixtures, they have won on 2 of their last 3 visits here, including the earlier meeting this season. Remember, in the Scottish lower leagues, the teams meet 4 times per season.


Dumbarton have really let this season slip away from them, after a good start and have very little to play for, in their last ten matches, they have beaten only Elgin and East Stirling, the bottom two sides and will be without Gentile, Ferry and Gemmell, tonight.


I only have one concern and that is tha,t this will be the visitors 4th game in 10 days, but they had an extended break before that and you do not get so tired when you are winning. The adrenalin rush will usually carry you through. No real injury problems, an away win for me.


5 points Arbroath -1/2 ball asian line 2.135. Lost 1-0 -5 pts


Good Luck
