Dumbarton prepare to entertain Peterhead at Strathclyde Homes Stadium on Tuesday evening, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 4 of the 8 previous games, with the Sons winning just 3.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Strathclyde Homes Stadium was less than a year ago, in March 2010, as the visitors ran out cosy 1-3 winners in a Scottish Division Two match.

Recent respective form guides
Dumbarton's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. The Sons's have scored 8 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 9.
