CHELTENHAM TOWN v GRIMSBY TOWN
Tuesday 17th October 2017 – Kickoff: 1945hrs
Football – England – League Two Betting Tips
Cheltenham Town will be keen to return to winning ways when they play host to Grimsby Town on Tuesday night at Whaddon Road following Saturday’s 3-1 defeat away at Port Vale.
Cheltenham had previously put together a promising five-match unbeaten run in League Two prior to the weekend defeat as they’d recorded wins over Colchester United, Mansfield Town, Chesterfield and Swindon Town, along with a point in a 1-1 draw at Accrington Stanley.
The Robins have also bounced back well from two recent defeats at home to Exeter City and Stevenage by winning their last three against the aforementioned, Colchester, Mansfield Town and Swindon Town amidst an overall and now healthier home record of 4-0-2 12/7.
Visitors Grimsby Town sit just one league position and one point above hosts Cheltenham Town ahead of this Tuesday night clash, as they head towards the west country on the back of a frustrating 0-0 draw at home with bottom half outfit Crawley Town on the weekend.
Nevertheless, Grimsby are unbeaten in their last four as they’ve drawn with Colchester United, Lincoln City and Crawley Town, along with a 2-1 win away at Port Vale. However, Grimsby’s away performances and results have been very inconsistent so far this season as their away record of 3-0-3 9/11 shows.
Wins at Chesterfield, Accrington Stanley and Port Vale have been cancelled out by losses at Stevenage, Mansfield Town and Newport County, so a result at Cheltenham tonight appears to be 50-50 at best for the visitors.
Therefore, backing the hosts with the round ball here looks the safest option.
Pick: Cheltenham Town AH0 @ 1.50 bet365
