Peterhead prepare to entertain East Fife at Balmoor Stadium on Saturday afternoon, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 4 of the 11 previous games, with the The Blue Toon winning just 3.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Balmoor Stadium was less than a year ago, in March 2009, with Peterhead running out comfortable 2-0 winners in a Scottish Division Two match.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Its been a distinctly poor show from Peterhead at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the The Blue Toon will at least gain a draw. Score draw
