Peterhead face a trip to Alloa Athletic at Recreation Park on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The The Blue Toon will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them ending up on the losing side in more than half of the games played between the two.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was earlier this season, the Wasps carving out a narrow 1 - 0 victory in a Scottish Division Two match.
