Recent respective form guides
Dumbarton's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While Sons have scored 5, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Nothing seems to be going right for the Sons at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the Wasps come away with an easy victory. Away win
