Recent respective form guides
Alloa Athletic's home form is most definitely relegation standard, collecting just 1 solitary point from the last six. While Wasps have scored 6, a worringly large 20 have been leaked at the other end.
Morton's away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occassions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. The The 'Ton's have scored 6 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 7.
Alloa Ath. find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 14 games have yielded only 10 points. Morton are just outside the promotion places, in 2nd, having taken 25 points from 13 games.
