History of the Berwick Rangers v Alloa Athletic fixture

Alloa face a trip to Berwick Rangers at Shielfield Park on Saturday evening, hoping to improve upon an average previous return from this fixture. Wasps have won 12 of the 41 games compared to the host's 18 victories.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in March 2002, with Alloa inflicting a narrow 0 - 1 defeat upon the Borderers in a Scottish Division Two match.
