Morecambe vs Crawley Town Predictions

When a season starts to approach its final stages, the races for the league title, promotion and play-offs are all monitored closely, but it is the dog fight at the bottom of the table which can often provide the most entertainment. This weekend sees two sides who will be scrapping tooth and nail as they bid to secure their Football League survival when Morecambe welcome Crawley Town to the Globe Arena.

Although it can’t be much fun as a fan, it must be reassuring for Morecambe to know that they have been in a relegation dog fight plenty of times in the past and come through it with their spot in League Two in tact. The hosts experience in these sort of situations will no doubt be a big plus for the end of season run in, but the two wins they managed over the MK Dons and Forest Green Rovers in their last two home games will also be a big boost as it has provided a little bit of breathing space over the two sides currently in the danger zone.

Crawley Town may be ahead of Morecambe in the table at the moment, but it does not take a genius to realise that there is panic all over the club about their potential fate at the moment. The visitors come into this match having conceded a massive nine times in their last two outings, and given that the 12 points they have managed on their travels this season represents the worst return in the league, it seems unlikely that they will be able to turn their fortunes around with a win this weekend.

The hosts will be feeling confident after their last two home games brought about an unexpected six points, and with the side claiming a healthy 13 points from their last eight matches, they will certainly believe they can secure a further three points this time around. That confidence will only be boosted by their visitors abysmal away record, and with this in mind we think that backing a Morecambe win represents the best chance of a decent return from this fixture.
