Alloa Athletic, Recent FormBuilding up confidence within his squad will be a priority for Alloa Athletic supremo Brian Rice after sustaining a heavy 4-1 home loss to Falkirk.
He will be shining a spotlight on his team's poor defensive record of late, having conceded 12 goals in their last 6 games, despite picking up a modest amount of points due in no small part to the 10 goals they managed at the other end. They have been unable to score at home in 3 of their last 6 games, and they have also failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
Serious concerns will be mounting for The Wasps, having gone without a home league win in their last 6 games and losing the last 6 games in a row at The Indodrill Stadium.
Conor Sammon will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Alloa Athletic.
Cove Rangers, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 2-1 home defeat by Queen of the South will have left the Cove Rangers squad feeling a little deflated.
Manager Paul Hartley will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 7 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 7 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They've kept a clean sheet in 3 of their last 6 away games.
Having drawn 2 of their last 6 games they have at least put some points on the table, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
Alloa Athletic will be looking to forget their last league encounter with Cove Rangers, when a slew of goals ended in a heavy 3-0 defeat.
The last 4 matches between Alloa and The Toonsers show that Alloa have let in at least one goal on each occasion.
Cove have been unbeaten the last 4 times they have faced Alloa in the league.
With no real injury worries, Alloa manager Brian Rice will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Cove manager Paul Hartley has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
