The Conservatives took Stirling from the SNP in 2017, but Stephen Kerr's majority is just 148 votes.
This is undoubtedly the SNP's number one target seat. They have selected MEP Alyn Smith to fight it, and Nicola Sturgeon headed there on the very first day of the campaign. The Tories will be equally determined to hold it.
The area voted strongly to Remain in 2016, even by Scottish standards, but also recorded an above-average No vote in the 2014 independence referendum.
The result here should tell us a lot about how well equipped the Tories are to hang on overall - and also about the extent to which the Greens might attract some pro-independence voters.

Richard Leonard says Labour failed to get through the "din" of Brexit and other constitutional issues.
Which is another way of saying folk were unsure about Labour's position.
The Scottish Labour leader says he tried to talk about poverty but couldn't be heard.
I understand his point - but parties cannot choose the agenda, especially when it is completely dominated by Brexit and independence.
These are not constitutional distractions from the truth.
They are fundamental.
Labour's stance was uncertain.
Mr Leonard says cast iron positions might not have helped.
