Gillingham and Rochdale to Draw

Both teams have started the new season with losses, so this game will be important for their confidence early in the season. And while Gillingham is the better team on paper, we don’t see them winning this game.

In fact, we feel that a draw could be the most reasonable outcome for this match. After all, three of the last five meetings between Gillingham and Rochdale have ended without a winner, so why not this one as well?

Gillingham and Rochdale to Draw at Half Time

Since we expect to see a draw in this match, we can also see Gillingham and Rochdale being tied at half time. After all, that is usually the case at half times of matches ending without a winner.

Furthermore, three of the previous five head-to-head duels between Gillingham and Rochdale have been tied at half times, so we won’t be surprised if that happens again in this game.

Both Teams to Score – Yes

Both teams have scored in four of the last five h2h meetings between Gillingham and Rochdale, so we expect to see more of the same when they meet on Saturday as well.

In addition to this, both teams scored in 50% of all Rochdale matches in the league last season, while the same is true for 46% of all Gillingham matches in League One last year.

Gillingham vs Rochdale preview: An important game for both teams

Gillingham

The fans of Gillingham football club were certainly devastated last season when their team was relegated due to having a worse goal difference than Fleetwood, but they are probably hoping for a swift return to the third rank of English football. However, Gillingham started the new season with a loss to Wimbledon.

Rochdale

Just like their upcoming opponent, Rochdale also lost their first-round match since they were defeated by Crewe Alexandra. The team that finished last season in League Two in the 18th place doesn’t have the highest ambitions in this one either, but they are certainly hoping for a stressful end of the season.
