Prediction: Airdrie United vs Queen Of The South | League One

Match preview

Airdrie United welcome Queen Of The South in Scotland’s League One on 14 November 2026, with kick-off scheduled for 15:00 UTC. Airdrie arrive after a 3-2 win over Alloa Athletic, while Queen Of The South are looking to respond to their 2-1 defeat by East Kilbride.

The recent numbers point in different directions: Airdrie’s matches have often been high-scoring, but Queen Of The South have struggled to find the net. However, Airdrie’s record against this opponent and their recent home results make the fixture less straightforward than the latest scorelines alone might suggest.

Form and recent results

Airdrie’s victory at Alloa featured three goals from the visitors: Lewis Gibson scored in the 21st minute and Josh Gentles added two, in the 31st and 89th minutes. Alloa replied through Matthew Aitken and Scott Taggart. At least three goals have been scored in five of Airdrie’s last six matches; across that run, Airdrie scored 12 and conceded 11.

There are cautions in the home side’s record, though. Airdrie have gone two league matches without a home win and have not beaten Queen Of The South in their last nine league meetings. The available information does not provide a wider breakdown of Airdrie’s form or results beyond those details.

Queen Of The South’s latest outing ended in a 2-1 loss to East Kilbride. Connor Young scored their goal in the fifth minute, before Jamie Hamilton and Cameron Elliott found the net for East Kilbride. Queen Of The South have scored only three times across their last six matches and conceded 13 over the same period, a spell that highlights their recent difficulty at both ends.

Head-to-head record

Across the six listed meetings since 8 October 2022, Airdrie United have won two, Queen Of The South have won three, and one match has been drawn. Those fixtures produced 23 goals in total, an average of 3.83 per game, although that past scoring rate does not guarantee another open contest.

The most recent league meeting, played on 5 September 2026, ended in a 2-1 home win for Queen Of The South. Airdrie’s longer run without a league victory over them is notable, while Queen Of The South have also avoided defeat away to Airdrie in their last four league visits.

Team news and line-ups

No injury, suspension or return-to-action information is provided for either side. Confirmed or predicted line-ups are also unavailable, so there is not enough information to name likely starters or outline formation changes.

Tactical factors

Airdrie’s recent matches have carried a strong goals pattern, with 12 scored and 11 conceded in their last six. That suggests their games have offered chances at both ends, but the available figures do not establish the tactical reasons behind those totals or identify specific weaknesses.

Queen Of The South’s three goals in six matches make their attacking output a central question. Their record in recent visits to Airdrie and their advantage in the latest head-to-head meeting provide reasons for caution, even as their current scoring return weighs against them. Whether they can turn those past results into a stronger attacking display remains uncertain.

Prediction: Airdrie United vs Queen Of The South

Airdrie United 2-1 Queen Of The South.

Airdrie’s latest win and their capacity to score in recent games give them a basis to be favoured, but their two-match home winless run and nine-game league drought against Queen Of The South complicate the case. The visitors’ recent goal shortage is a concern, yet their recent head-to-head record shows they have been capable of getting results in this fixture.

A narrow home victory is therefore a tentative call rather than a certainty. The data supports the possibility of goals, but the competing trends leave the final outcome uncertain.
