Competition: League Two

Market: Both teams to score – No

Odds: 19/20 @ 1xBet

Hoping to move within touching distance of the play-off places on Tuesday night, Crewe will welcome Cheltenham to Gresty Road.

Starting with the hosts, making an immediate return to losing ways last weekend, Crewe have continued on what has been a worrying rut. Watching their play-off dreams take a blow over the past couple of months, Lee Bell’s men have the feel of a squad seeking a much-welcomed boost here. Eventually falling to a 2-0 loss at the hands of Bradford, the Cheshire-based outfit have mustered just a single win from any of their previous seven League Two appearances. Despite opening April with a 2-0 victory against Grimsby, the Railwaymen have drastically failed to find any kind of fluidity in the final third. Signing off March with a 1-0 defeat against Port Vale, Crewe have drawn a blank in three of their last four outings. With their play-off dreams hanging by a thread, Bell will also have a real headache over his side’s extended struggles on home soil. Including a 3-0 drumming against Newport on February 8th, Crewe have won just a pair of their last eight showdowns at Gresty Road.

As for the visitors, putting in what was another downbeat display last weekend as they slumped to a 2-0 loss at home against Doncaster, Cheltenham are limping their way over the finishing line. Enduring what has become quite the rut and still sat firmly in the bottom-half of the League Two table, Michael Flynn’s men have now lost each of their previous four consecutive appearances. Suffering consecutive 2-0 defeats against Morecambe and Tranmere on either side of opening April, Thursday’s guests have also collected just a single point from their last four outings. Likewise, it should also be noted, the Robins have registered just a sole win from their previous 10 straight appearances. Much like the midweek hosts, Cheltenham have also shown their own extended issues in the final third. Including a 1-0 loss against MK Dons last month, the former Newport boss has not seen his struggling squad find the net in over 400 minutes of action.

Bet: Both teams *not* to score at Crewe Alexandra vs Cheltenham Town 19/20 for Thursday’s League Two matchup @ 1xBet
