FootyMad's prediction ...

Its been a distinctly poor show from Alloa at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Wasps will at least gain a draw. Score draw

Sequence statistics:
Alloa Drawn last 3 games at home.
Failed to win in previous 5 home matches.
Unbeaten run of 4 matches.
Airdrie Utd. No sequences of note
