Recent respective form guides

Ayr United have only collected 1 win and 3 draws from the last six home games played. While Honest Men have scored 5, a worringly large 8 have been leaked at the other end.

Inverness CT's away form is none too clever either, collecting 2 wins and 3 draws from the last six. The games have constituted a decent return of 10 goals for the Caley Thistle, and 10 goals against.

Ayr Utd. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 7 points from 10 matches. Inverness CT see themselves just below half way in the Irn Bru Scottish Division One, showing a record of 13 points from their 10 games played so far,
