Recent respective form guides

Peterhead's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While The Blue Toon have scored 7, a worringly large 14 have been leaked at the other end.

Stirling Alb.'s away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occasions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. While the Binos have hit 12 goals, 18 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Peterhead lie just outside the playoff positions in the Irn Bru Scottish Division Two, picking up 30 points from their 22 games so far. Stirling Alb. are just outside the promotion places, in 2nd, having taken 37 points from 20 games.
