Accrington to Win

Accrington have been a tough nut to crack at Wham Stadium for an extended period where they have been beaten just once in their last 11 assignments. Stanley have looked both full of goals and confidence while performing in front of their home supporters and another positive result should be within reach when a Burton side that has last four away games on the bounce visits Lancashire.

Both Teams to Score

While John Coleman’s Accy have been pocketing plenty of points on home soil since December, they’ve also been providing stellar entertainment to those in attendance and eight of Accrington’s last nine home fixtures have produced goals at both ends. The hosts love to surge forward in numbers at the aptly named Wham Stadium, though gaps should open up at the opposite end as a result, so expect BTTS to land again when Burton come to town.

Over 1.5 Accrington Team Goals

Despite some subpar results on the road, Accrington seem to be able to find a different gear at home, particularly from an attacking standpoint. Indeed, free-scoring Stanley have notched at least twice in six of their last seven contests at home and they are available at an interesting price to register over 1.5 times again against a creaky Burton defence that shipped an eye-watering 14 goals in their last four away tussles.

Accrington vs Burton Match Preview and Team News

Accrington

Harry Pell, Josh Woods, Joel Mumbongo and Dion Charles are all listed as injury concerns for Accrington, though defender Ross Sykes should be back in the squad following his suspension. Stanley struck late to win at Fleetwood last time out, snapping a four-match run without a victory in the process and a top half finish in League One is still within reach.

Burton

om Hewlett is still sidelined for Burton, while midfielder Conor Shaughnessy is still serving his ban following his red card against Morecambe. Oumar Niasse and Johnny Smith are still doubtful. Albion upset the odds to hold leaders Wigan to a 0-0 draw at the Pirelli Stadium on Tuesday evening. On-loan keeper Matej Kovar was one of their star performers.
