Ladbrokes Championship playoff final second leg
BBC Alba, 5.15pm Saturday

It could be another tight affair when Alloa and Brechin City meet in the second leg of the Ladbrokes Championship playoff final.

The Angus side have a narrow advantage after a 1-0 win in the first leg and the onus will be on the Wasps to break down Brechin.

City were strong defensively in the first half of the season and have returned to something approaching that form.

Alloa love a 1-0 game - five of their last six fixtures have finished with that scoreline.

They could very well sneak it by the same scoreline again, but a safer bet would be to go for under 2.5 goals.

Recommendation
Under 2.5 goals
1pt 21-20 Betfair

Team news
Alloa have a full squad available.
Brechin are missing Gareth Rodger, Darren McCormack and Euan Smith.

Key stat
Brechin have scored one goal exactly in six of their last eight games.
