Dunfermline Athletic vs Airdrieonians Current League Standings

After beginning December two points adrift of the top four, Neil Lennon's men have clawed that deficit to snatch fourth place on goal difference, thanks to securing consecutive wins. The challenge now is to secure three league wins on the spin for the first time since March 2024 if they want to maintain their newfound momentum.

Meanwhile, after rare back-to-back wins in December for Airdrie, they have seemingly reverted to form with a winless run of five matches. Aaron Taylor-Sinclair is yet to win in the league as permanent manager with the Diamonds three points adrift of the relegation spot.
