Recent respective form guides

Dumbarton's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Sons have scored 6, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.

Alloa Ath.'s away form is none too clever either, picking up two good wins, but losing three, from the last six. While the Wasps have hit 6 goals, 12 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Dumbarton are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 25 points from 28 matches. Alloa Ath. find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 28 games have yielded only 18 points.
