Peterhead prepare to entertain Gretna at Balmoor Stadium on Saturday afternoon, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. The majority of those games have been won by the The Blue Toon.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Balmoor Stadium was less than a year ago, in January 2005, when they eased past their opponents in a high-scoring 4-2 thriller, in a Scottish Division Three match.
