Cheltenham vs Burton Albion Predictions

• Burton Albion are scoring just 0.54 goals per game away from home this season.
• The last ten meetings between these two are averaging 2.3 goals per game.
• Seven of Burton’s 11 away league games have seen fewer than three goals.

Leaky Cheltenham Town

The Robins welcome Burton Albion to Whaddon Road on Saturday and the Gloucestershire outfit will be looking to end their seven-game winless run. The hosts poor run of form, in which they’ve accrued just three points from a possible 18, has seen them drop down the table to 15th place in the league table. Alarmingly, Cheltenham Town have conceded 15 goals in their last six games – only Morecambe have conceded more in that period.

The visitors arrive off the back of an excellent 4-1 home victory over Crewe Alexandra on New Years Day, a result that ended a run of three consecutive losses. However, homesickness has hit Burton hard this season as they’ve scored just six goals across all of their 11 away league matches. Boss Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink will be hoping they can carry on their goalscoring form from the previous match here.

Tight game predicted down in Gloucestershire

We think this one will be a bit of a slog as two sides, who are not exactly free-scoring, go head-to-head. Both will be desperate not to lose and we don’t see this one being a classic. However, we also think that the hosts can nick this one by a single goal.
