๐ Form Guide
Peterhead
WDDDDL
Peterhead wonโt want a repeat of their last result here after a 1-0 League Two losing effort in their last game against Dumbarton.
Michael Ruth (73') was the scorer for Dumbarton.
It has been all too rare in recent times where Peterhead have managed to hold out for a full 90 minutes. It will be a concern for them that Peterhead have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous 6 clashes, letting in 7 goals along the way.
Looking at their past form shows that Peterhead:
- are undefeated in their last 4 league matches at home.
- are without a win at home for the past 2 league matches.
Stranraer
DWLLDW โ
Stranraer will go into this match following on from a 5-0 League Two win vs Dumbarton in their most recent game.
For Stranraer, the goals were scored by Matty Grant (30'), Dylan Forrest (34'), Ben Armour (45') and Deryn Lang (88'). Ryan Blair (3' Own goal) scored for Dumbarton.
The attacking players from Stranraer have failed to get amongst the goals in their past six encounters, recording the poor return of only 4. In those fixtures, The Blues have also seen the collective goal aggregate of their opponents equal 5. Such a pattern might not be carried forward into this next game, of course.
Looking at the pre-match facts, Stranraer:
- haven't beaten Peterhead when they've played them away from home in the last 6 league matches. Not good at all.
- are without an away win for the past 12 league matches. Very poor, indeed.
