History of the Alloa Athletic v Cowdenbeath fixture

Alloa Ath. prepare to entertain Cowdenbeath at Recreation Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Wasps are clearly on top, having won 43 and lost only 13 of the 67 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Recreation Park was earlier this season, the Wasps carving out a narrow 2-1 victory in a Scottish Division Two match.

Recent respective form guides

Alloa Athletic's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Wasps have scored 8, a worringly large 14 have been leaked at the other end.

Cowdenbeath's away form is none too clever either, winning and losing 3 each of the last six games. The games have constituted a decent return of 10 goals for the Blue Brazil, and 12 goals against.

Alloa Ath. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 37 points from 33 matches. Cowdenbeath lie just outside the playoff positions in the Bells Scottish Division Two, picking up 41 from their 33 games so far.
