Stenhousemuir are set to host Motherwell at Ochilview Park in the third round of the Scottish League Cup. Stenhousemuir are dead last in Group G, while Motherwell are second. This will be the first-ever meeting between these two teams in this tournament. Here's our match prediction.
Stenhousemuir finished in fourth place in the 2024-25 Scottish League One season. This was a perfect finish for a side that had recently been promoted for the first time after a six-year absence.
Stenny now have their sights set on the Scottish League Cup. They have not lifted the trophy in this tournament and will hope to do so in the current edition.
However, their first match has already raised concerns about achieving such a feat. Pitted against Morton, they convincingly lost 3-0 away from home. This currently sees them at the bottom of the table in Group G.
Motherwell finished in eighth place in the 2024-25 Scottish Premiership within the relegation rounds. With the new campaign set to begin in August, they will want to improve on that finish under the guidance of Jens Berthel Askou.
Regarding their performance in the Scottish League Cup, the Well have yet to suffer defeat. So far, they played two games, the first match against Clyde and secured a win via penalties, winning 5-4. In the second round, they beat Peterhead 2-1 at home.

Our Stenhousemuir vs Motherwell Prediction
Stenhousemuir have never faced Motherwell in the Scottish League Cup or in any competition for that matter. Their opening match against Morton wasn't convincing, indicating they will suffer a second straight defeat in this upcoming clash. Home form has not been convincing with just one win in their last six games.
Motherwell can take advantage of that poor display and use it to secure a comfortable win. Considering that their opponents also concede a lot when playing at home will also be music to their ears. Our Stenhousemuir vs Motherwell prediction is for over 2.5.
