Stenhousemuir prepare to entertain Peterhead at Ochilview Park on Saturday afternoon, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 3 of the 7 previous games, with the Warriors winning just 2.

Stenhousemuir's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Warriors have scored 5, a worringly large 8 have been leaked at the other end.

The away form of Peterhead is pretty dire, attaining just 3 draws from the previous six away games. While the The Blue Toon have hit 5 goals, 11 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Stenhousemuir find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 21 games have yielded only 18 points. Peterhead are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 22 points from 23 matches.

Its been a distinctly poor show from Stenhousemuir at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Warriors will at least gain a draw. No-score draw
