Cheltenham Town vs Accrington Stanley Predictions, Betting Tips and Match Previews

We are backing both teams to score when Cheltenham Town host Accrington Stanley this weekend and this is available at 10/11 with bet365. For our correct score tip we think that there will be little to choose between these two out of form sides but ultimately we think Accrington will return to Lancashire with the points and a 2-1 victory, which is priced at 9/1 with the same site.

Cheltenham may well go into this fixture with a surge of confidence after they dismantled Leicester City Under 21’s in the controversial Checkatrade Trophy in midweek. The Robins put in a dominant display and came away with a 6-1 victory, a result which has been all too rare for them this season. Cheltenham currently find themselves in the relegation zone and, as we can see that 62% of their games finish with both teams scoring, they often get themselves into the contest but they often come up short.

That stat of both teams scoring is also something that is reflected in the head to head record between these two sides. Nine of the 13 meetings between the sides have resulted this way and that includes a run of the previous four matches.

If this bet is to come in however then it will be in spite of Accrington’s stats. They have failed to score in half of their away games and they have only scored four times in their previous eight games. Despite this they have shown some small signs of recovery and their previous two league games has seen improved performances and a four point return.
