Recent respective form guides
Alloa Athletic's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Wasps have scored 7, a worringly large 12 have been leaked at the other end.
Raith Rovers's away form is none too clever either, remaining unbeaten in their last six, winning five and drawing the one. Those games have seen the Rovers pummel 12 goals, and let in 2.
Alloa Ath. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 37 points from 32 matches. Raith Rovers's total of 50 points from their 32 games sees them sitting in the playoff places in Bells Scottish Division Two.
