In the League Two fixture held on January 28, 2023, Forfar Athletic FC emerged victorious against Albion Rovers FC in a 1-0 victory. Remarkably, no yellow or red cards were issued during the match, emphasizing the disciplined play from both teams.

Statistically, Albion Rovers FC dominated the match but failed to capitalise on key opportunities. They had 5 shots on target and 2 shots off target, in contrast to Forfar Athletic who had 4 shots on target and 3 off target. Albion's failure to find the back of the net, despite more attempts, could be attributed to the Forfar goalkeeper, who managed to make a significant 5 saves, 2 more than Albion's keeper.

Corner kicks highlight a semblance of offensive dominance from Albion Rovers with 3 attempts as opposed to Forfar's single effort. However, their inability to convert these set-pieces ultimately cost them the game.

When it came to fouls, Albion Rovers committed a higher number at 9, compared to Forfar's 6. This could suggest defensive weakness and a lack of discipline from Albion, though it must be noted that no discipline cards were issued.

The substitution statistics are a telling tale of the team's strategies. Forfar Athletic conducted more substitutions (3) than Albion Rovers (2) indicating the constant tweaking of their tactics which could have been a major factor in their eventual victory.

There were only two offsides in the game, both committed by Forfar Athletic. Despite these infringements, Forfar's overall strategy was effective enough to secure a victory, scoring their sole goal in the second half.

The game can be summed up as a missed opportunity for Albion Rovers. Despite having superior numbers in shots on target, corner kicks, and fewer fouls, they failed to capitalize on these advantages, allowing Forfar Athletic to steal a crucial win. On the other hand, Forfar Athletic demonstrated that a well-organised defensive structure, coupled with a tactical match approach can still tip the game in their favour, even if they have fewer shots or corner kicks.
