Crewe vs Mansfield Town Predictions

• Mansfield have won four of their last six league games.
• Five of the last seven League Two H2Hs have seen both teams find the net.
• Four of Crewe’s last six matches saw both teams score.

Time for a Stag party in Crewe?

Mansfield came through a nervy start to the season to remain around the play-offs at this early stage and look like worthy favourites to defeat Crewe given that the hosts have won just one of their last six matches.

The Stags have taken seven points from their last three games, which is a lot more than what can be said of Crewe. While the visitors sit just one point behind Mansfield, the momentum is certainly with the visitors and that’s not to mention the fact that Nigel Clough is unbeaten in six of his nine touchline meetings with Crewe.

All four of Crewe’s competitive defeats this season saw them concede at least two goals, although they got on the scoresheet themselves in the last two such matches. With Mansfield finding their feet in the promotion race, we predict that they’ll have to work for a positive result, despite their warm favouritism.

Stick with the visitors

We’re backing a Mansfield win with BTTS, the momentum may be with the visitors but Crewe are certainly no pushovers. As for the correct score, we’re going with a small stakes selection on a 2-1 away win.
