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 7, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.
Dumbarton's away form is none too clever either, with a marvellous return of five wins and one defeat from the last six. Those games have seen the Sons pummel 14 goals, and let in 4.
Alloa Ath. are stuck down in the relegation zone of Bells Scottish Division Two with a return of just 3 points from their 6 games thus far. Dumbarton are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 9 points from 6 matches.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Nothing seems to be going right for the Wasps at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the Sons come away with an easy victory. Away win
