Preview: Peterhead vs. Alloa Athletic, Scottish League One

BALMOOR STADIUM, Peterhead, Scotland (Interstat) — A pivotal Scottish League One fixture with playoff implications sees Peterhead host Alloa Athletic on Tuesday, March 10, 2026, with the hosts looking to avenge a heavy defeat from earlier in the season.

The recent head-to-head record between the sides is split. Peterhead earned a 2-1 home victory last September, but Alloa Athletic responded with a dominant 4-0 win at home in early December. That lopsided result is part of a challenging recent stretch for Peterhead, which has won just once in its last five league matches (1-3-1), including a 2-1 loss at Cove Rangers on Saturday.

In contrast, Alloa Athletic arrives in stronger form, having secured a 2-1 home victory over Kelty Hearts on Saturday. That win extended its unbeaten run to four matches in all competitions (3-1-0), with its last defeat coming on Jan. 24.

Peterhead’s season has been marked by inconsistency at Balmoor Stadium, while Alloa has shown resilience on the road lately, with away wins at Queen of the South and East Fife in February.

According to Interstat’s game simulator, Peterhead is projected to edge this contest with a 2-1 victory. A win for either side would provide crucial momentum in the tightly packed League One table as the season enters its final months.

Following this match, Peterhead will host Stenhousemuir on March 14. Alloa Athletic travels to face Montrose on March 14. The two clubs are scheduled to meet again in a reverse fixture at Alloa on March 28.
