Arbroath vs Inverness CT Predictions

• Abroath are unbeaten in 19 of their last 20 home matches in all competitions.
• Six of the last seven meetings between these two have witnessed fewer than three goals.
• The hosts have kept four clean sheets in their last five home fixtures.

Little to split these two apart

The second leg of their playoff semi-final gets underway at Gayfield Park and hosts Arbroath will be looking to continue their remarkable form on home soil. They’ve suffered just a single defeat in their last 20 home matches and boasted the second-best home record in the Scottish Championship. After securing a 0-0 draw in the first leg away from home, Arbroath will be confident of clinching a win here and keeping their dream of playing top-flight football next season alive.

However, Inverness have had to work for their place in this semi-final as they were able to edge past Partick Thistle in the previous round. They won the tie 3-1 on aggregate which included a 2-1 victory away from home and that’s something they’d love to repeat here. They’ll be disappointed that they weren’t able to capitalise on home advantage in the first leg but it did at least stretch their unbeaten run to five games.

Hosts to edge close encounter

This one looks as though it will be an extremely cagey affair given what’s on the line. There have been fewer than three goals in six of the last seven meetings and we fancy this one to also be a game where goals are few and far between. A 1-0 home win could also be likely.
