Nairn County vs Wick Academy prediction for the Highland League match on February 7, 2026, at 15:00. Based on form, head-to-head, and league table positions, Nairn County are the favorites with a 45% win probability, while the draw is at 25% and Wick Academy have a 30% chance.

Team Form

Nairn County come into this match with a poor run of results. Their last five matches have returned just one win, with four defeats: L, L, W, L, L. The solo victory was a 2-0 home win over Banks O'Dee in the Highland League, but heavy losses to Elgin City (0-6) and Inverness CT (1-3) in friendlies, plus league defeats to Fraserburgh (0-1) and Brechin City (0-3), will have dented confidence. At home in the league this season, Nairn County have a respectable record: 9 wins, 2 draws, and 6 losses from 17 matches, scoring 27 and conceding 17.

Wick Academy have also struggled lately. Their last five results read D, L, L, W, L. The draw came at home to Banks O'Dee (1-1), and the win was a 1-0 away success at Turriff United. However, three defeats in that spell—including a 6-1 thrashing at Banks O'Dee and a 0-3 home loss to Buckie Thistle—expose defensive frailties. Their away form in the league is not available from the current standings, but overall they sit outside the top 12 of the Highland League.

Head-to-Head Record

The overall head-to-head record across the last five meetings shows 1 Nairn County win, 1 draw, and 3 Wick Academy wins. The most recent clash before this fixture was in November 2024, when Nairn County won 3-0 at home—a result that highlights their ability to perform on their own ground. Earlier encounters dating back to 2018 have largely gone Wick Academy's way, with three away wins for the visitors and a 4-1 scoreline each time.

League Table Positions

In the Highland League table, Nairn County sit 9th with 49 points from 34 matches (15 wins, 4 draws, 15 losses, 56 goals scored, 52 conceded). At home, they are ranked 7th with 29 points from 17 games (9 wins, 2 draws, 6 losses). Wick Academy are not present in the top 12 of the overall standings, indicating a lower league position and a likely disadvantage in quality compared to Nairn County.

• Form: Both teams are in poor form with only one win in their last five outings, but Nairn County’s home consistency gives them the edge.
• Head-to-head: Despite Wick Academy holding a 3-1-1 advantage overall, Nairn County’s sole win came at home, where this match is being played.

In conclusion, Nairn County are the more likely winner, but the probability of a draw or an away win remains significant given the recent instability of both sides.
