Peterhead prepare to entertain Gretna at Balmoor Stadium on Saturday evening, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. Of the two previous meetings, the Blue Toon have won one and drawn one.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Balmoor Stadium was less than a year ago, in April 2003, the Blue Toon carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a Scottish Division Three match.
