Alloa Ath. prepare to entertain Peterhead at Recreation Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Wasps are clearly on top, winning 60.00% of the games played between the two.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Recreation Park was earlier this season, the Wasps carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a Scottish Division Two match.
