Recent respective form guides

Arbroath's home form is most definitely relegation standard, collecting just 1 solitary point from the last six. While The Red Lichties have scored 5, a worringly large 14 have been leaked at the other end.

Peterhead's away form is none too clever either, picking up two good wins, but losing three, from the last six. While the The Blue Toon have hit 5 goals, 11 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Arbroath are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 17 points from 18 matches. Peterhead are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 21 points from 17 matches.
