East Fife vs Queen of the South Current League Standings

The Fifers lie sixth in the league, eight below fourth placed Alloa Athletic and clear of Cove Rangers in ninth by the same number of points. However, Dick Campbell’s men are on a four match losing run and will need to halt that run quickly if they do not want to be dragged into a relegation battle.

Meanwhile, Queen of the South have only lost two of their last ten matches which has helped propel them into third and join the four-team race to win the title with only four points between the top four. As such, a win at Bayview for Peter Murphy’s men has the potential to leave the Doonhamers only behind top spot on goal difference.
