Tranmere to Win

Reason for tip

Tranmere came from 2-0 down to draw with Accrington and then beat them on penalties on Tuesday, and that could kick-start their season against a side who have won just twice in 18 visits to Prenton Park and are on a run of only one away win in six league games

Tranmere 1-0

Reason for tip

There do not tend to be too many goals in Tranmere matches, while Gillingham have kept successive clean sheets, so I think a narrow victory to the hosts is their most likely route to victory

Tranmere will be hoping a stunning comeback against Accrington in the EFL Cup on Tuesday will be the catalyst their season needs after defeats to Stevenage and Mansfield in their opening two league games.

Micky Mellon’s side had the best home record in the division last season, winning 16 of their 23 matches, while they face an opposition who have been successful on just two of their 18 trips to Prenton Park.

Gillingham also lost on the opening day of the season, going down 2-0 to AFC Wimbledon, but bounced back by registering a home victory over Rochdale.

Neil Harris’ side, who then beat the Wombles in the EFL Cup, have only picked up one victory in their last six away league games though, leading to their relegation last season.

I feel like Tranmere could get their season up and running here, but it is unlikely that there will be too many goals, with 1-0 my correct score prediction.
