Recent respective form guides

Raith Rovers's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Rovers have scored 4, a worringly large 8 have been leaked at the other end.

Peterhead's away form is none too clever either, winning 2 of the last six, but losing the other 4. While the The Blue Toon have hit 8 goals, 12 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Raith Rovers lie just outside the playoff positions in the Bells Scottish Division Two, picking up 21 points from their 18 games so far. Peterhead see themselves just below half way in the Bells Scottish Division Two, showing a record of 20 points from their 18 games played so far,
