Recent respective form guides
Dumbarton's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While Sons have scored 8, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.
Clyde's away form is none too clever either, collecting 1 win and 3 draws from the last six played. The Bully Wee's have scored 8 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 9.
Dumbarton lie just outside the playoff positions in the Irn Bru Scottish Division Two, picking up 44 points from their 32 games so far. Clyde find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 31 games have yielded only 24 points.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Its been a distinctly poor show from Dumbarton at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Sons will at least gain a draw. Score draw
