Burton Albion vs Cheltenham Predictions

• Burton have won three of their four League One games including both of their starts at Pirelli Stadium.
• Cheltenham have lost two of their last three league matches and have picked up just one point from their two away trips.
• However, The Robins have scored in all six of their competitive starts this term.

Burton to bounce back against The Robins

Burton suffered their first League One defeat of the season at Cambridge United last weekend, but Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink’s side look good value to bounce straight back when they take on newly promoted Cheltenham Town in front of the Sky Sports cameras this Friday.

The Brewers turned in an extremely poor second half display at Abbey Stadium on Saturday and eventually went down 3-0 against The U’s following a pair of Thomas Hamer own goals.

Nonetheless, Albion were previously flying after three wins from three including a fine 1-0 victory over Sunderland on their last start at Pirelli Stadium, and Hasselbaink’s charges make definite appeal here at odds-against to maintain their 100% home record.

Cheltenham were victorious on penalties at Gillingham in midweek to secure their passage through to the third round of the Carabao Cup, though that extra game time will surely hinder them this Friday against a fresher Burton outfit hungry to make amends for their collapse last time out.

Cheltenham have lost two of their last three league games and have registered just one point from their two away trips so far this term, so Burton are the clear bet for this live televised fixture.

Town have scored though in each of their six competitive matches this season, and that’s factored into our 3-1 correct score prediction.
