Cheltenham Town (home)
- Cheltenham Town have won seven, drawn four and lost eight of their 19 home games in League Two 2025-2026, averaging 1.21 goals per game scored and 1.32 conceded.
- With 43 points from 40 games, the hosts sit 19th in the League Two table, and 6 points and 2 places worse off than Gillingham, who have played a game more.
Gillingham (away)
Gillingham have won five, drawn six and lost nine of their 20 away games in League Two 2025/2026 , averaging 1.05 goals per game scored and 1.40 goals per game conceded.
Head-to-Head
These sides are so evenly matched in terms of quality and inconsistency that a tie seems the likeliest outcome of Tuesday’s mid-table affair - especially as none of the last three meetings between these two sides in the 2025-2026 season have seen either side take the spoils.
Key Players
- Steve Cotterill has brought structure and pragmatism to Cheltenham Town since his appointment as head coach in September 2025, while the Robins’ attacking thrust comes from Isaac Hutchinson and Aidan Keena.
- Hutchinson has 14 goals in 37 League Two appearances this season and has scored two of Cheltenham Town’s last five goals, while Keena often links play and provides cover for his strike partner.
- Bradley Dack has seven goals in 36 appearances in League Two 2025/2026 and has that experience and knowhow to unlock any stubborn defence in the top seven, while Ronan Hale - who has two goals in Gillingham’s last five - can be just as direct.
Betting Insights
- Four of Cheltenham Town’s 19 home games have been draws, and Gillingham have six away draws to their name.
- Both sides are struggling for consistency and, given that the last three contests between these two have finished level, the odds for a draw at 3.25 seem generous.
Prediction
Cotterill's return to Cheltenham Town and Ainsworth’s drive to finish the season with a bang should give this game some intrigue and narrative, but the odds on a result for either side look no value at all.
