Recent respective form guides
Peterhead's disastrous home run has meant they have managed only 2 draws from the last six matches. While Blue Toon have scored 6, a worringly large 14 have been leaked at the other end.
Stranraer's away form is none too clever either, winning 2 of the last six, but losing the other 4. The games have constituted a decent return of 12 goals for the Blues, and 14 goals against.
Peterhead are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 4 points from 8 matches.
Stranraer are just outside the promotion places, in 2nd, having taken 16 points from 8 games.
