Match Preview
Alloa look to tame leaders in order to survive Alloa have to beat visiting champions Livingston to be certain of avoiding the relegation play-offs. But they will have to do so with a weakened team as full-back David McClune is banned, Nathan Taggart is unavailable through illness and Darren Smith, Mark Brown and Ross Philp are all injured. Youngsters Kenny O'Brien, Nicky Locke and Scott Pitman have been added to manager Allan Maitland's squad and on-loan Falkirk full-back James Bloom could return after a knock. The Wasps' hopes of avoiding the play-offs could rest with striker Jim Lister who is back after suspension. Maitland said: "We have had plenty of chances to put our season to bed but have not taken them. It will be tough but hopefully we can take this chance." Alloa go into the final day encounter one point and one place above second-bottom Stenhousemuir, who travel to bottom side Peterhead. Runaway champions Livingston welcome back leading goalscorer Iain Russell from suspension for the clash. Russell`s return is, however, tempered by defender Chris Malone being unavailable for selection due to the expiration of his contract. Lions boss Gary Bollan has again included youngster Callum Fordyce in his squad while youth-team colleagues Ross Docherty, Ross Gray and Stefan Scougall are also in the travelling party. Bollan said: "This is a huge game for Alloa but it is also the chance for us to end our season on a high and we intend to take it. "It will also be the last game for some players like Raffaele De Vita and Robbie Winters in Livingston colours so it will be a chance for the fans to say cheerio to them as well."

Match Report
Livi sink struggling Alloa Alloa needed a win to guarantee their safety but went down 3-1 to Livingston. Kenneth Jacobs made up for an early miss by slotting home Raffaele De Vita's cross into the bottom corner to give Livingston the lead. Alloa dragged themselves back into the game in spectacular fashion as Michael Dunlop rifled in a volley from the edge of the area. A Brilliant save from Livingston Keeper Darrenn Jamieson kept the scores level as he kept out Michael McGowan's effort. Livingston regained the lead when De Vita capped off a great afternoon with a 25-yard strike. Livingston then wrapped up the points as Mark McNulty worked his way down the left and laid the ball off for Iain Russell, who powered home a volley from 20 yards. The result means that Alloa will go into the relegation play-off.
