Stanley to take the win
Accrington Stanley have actually lost four of their last seven games, but to be fair, all of those losses were on the road. As a matter of fact, all of Accrington’s last six losses were away from home; they’ve won just one three of 19 away games, losing 12 of them. In contrast, Accrington Stanley have been one of the best home teams in the league; they won 11 of 19 home games this season, losing just four times. It’s worth noting that Accrington won all of their last four home games; they have no losses in their last nine home games, with six wins and three draws. On the other hand, we have a Gillingham side that’s won just three of their 19 games away from home; considering Accrington’s form at home, we’re predicting a win for the hosts.
Someone will fail to score
Gillingham have struggled in front of goal recently; they failed to score in three of their last four games, scoring just one goal in that stretch. Gillingham’s games have not produced a lot of goals; at least one team failed to score in all of their last seven games. It’s been the same case with clashes between Accrington Stanley and Gillingham; at least one of these teams blanked in all of their last seven encounters. With this in mind, we believe at least one of these teams will keep a clean sheet.
A game lacking goals
Meetings between these two have mostly been on the low-scoring side; all of their last eight clashes went below the 2.5 goal mark. As a matter of fact, four of the last five encounters between Accrington and Gillingham went under 1.5; their last seven meetings have seen exactly one goal scored per game on average. Similarly, most of Gillingham’s games have been low-scoring; four of their last five games went under 2.5. On that note, we shouldn’t expect a lot of goals in this match.
