Recent respective form guides
Elgin City's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While City have scored 7, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.
Peterhead's away form is none too clever either, winning and losing 3 each of the last six games. The Blue Toon's have a narrow positive goal difference over these games, with 8 goals for and 7 against.
Elgin City are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 14 points from 25 matches. Peterhead are just outside the promotion places, in 4th, having taken 45 points from 25 games.

Nothing seems to be going right for the City at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the Blue Toon come away with an easy victory. Away win
