It is strictly forbidden to give away points during this group stage because there is only one place available to proceed to the playoffs. The Binos have already lost a couple of points at home, so they will want to make amends against The Wasp. To place the best bet, check out our Alloa vs Stirling prediction.
Predictions and Betting Tips for Alloa vs Stirling
Alloa to Win
The two teams have met sporadically in recent years, their last meeting being a friendly match played in the pre-season of the previous year. On that occasion, Alloa won convincingly 4-1.
It is worth noting that in the 11 matches they have played since 2009, Alloa have won all of them. My Alloa vs Stirling prediction is that the host will get the 3 points at their stadium.
Under 2.5 Goals
Despite the Wasps’ recent setbacks, it is important mentioning that the squad has prioritized defensive line improvement. That’s one of the reasons their last five games have resulted in fewer than 2.5 goals.
The Bonis scored just once in their first game. Both Alloa and Stirling have struggled to find the back of the net, therefore we anticipate few goals in this match.
Both Teams to Score – No
Stirling failed to score in their last two official matches played away from home. The home team has gone three games without scoring.
It would not be surprising if one of the two squads failed to raise the score. There has always been a clean sheet in The Wasps’ last six matches, and the same has happened in The Bonis’ last four away fixtures.
The most recent Alloa vs Stirling preview:
Alloa
After five pre-season friendlies, the Wasps will play their first group stage fixture. Brian Rice’s squad has had one win and one tie in that period and has lost three in a row.
Despite winning three games, Alloa failed to move from the group round last year. With seven points, the Wasps finished third, four points behind leaders Ross County. Alloa was the team that rested in the previous week.
Stirling
The Binos made an exciting debut against Ayr, but were defeated in a panalty shootout. Carrick’s excellent assist set up Ross McGeachie’s goal.
Darren Young’s team led for more than 60 minutes. Ayr, however, equalized in the 84th minute. Stirling missed twice in the penalty shootout, while Ayr scored all of them. With just one point, the Binos moved into third place in Group A.
