Betting Insights
- The hosts are the slight betting favourite over their opponents in the betting, at 2.16 ahead of Gillingham at 3.15 and the draw at 3.45, which suits the visitor's record at this ground in recent years.
- Fleetwood are a trigger happy outfit that are a bit more direct in their press, with a strong emphasis on playing vertical.
- Gillingham like to control games in the midfield, using their wing-backs to offer width and a few set-piece or long-throw chances to break up the game.
- Under 2.5 goals at 1.83 seems to fit the script of a cagey affair better than a wide open shootout, and it may pay to side with the hosts, Fleetwood, on the result.
Prediction
Fleetwood have won their last two matches in a row, so they have momentum going into the game, but Gillingham are an experienced side and this could be cagey.
