Prediction: 2-0
Mansfield
All eyes will be on Peninsula Stadium when Salford City and Mansfield Town face each other in the League Two derby. The Lions are three points behind the playoffs berth, and we are positive that they will go all-out attack in Saturday’s clash. Ian Henderson, who is enjoying yet another successful season, will be the man to watch in the home team.
The Yellows, on the other hand, have little to play for in the season finale as they are 14 points clear of the relegation zone. Mansfield Town did well to beat Stevenage and Scunthorpe in the previous two league fixtures, but seeing that the hosts want this win more than the visitors, we are tempted to put our money on the Lions. In the first half of the season Mansfield defeated Salford 2-1, meaning that the hosts are hungry for revenge.
Highlighted Player (Richie Towell):
Richie Towell is a professional footballer who was born in Dublin, Ireland on July 17, 1991. After starting his youth career at Crumlin United, Towell was spotted by Celtic scouts in 2007, and he decided to join the famous Scottish outfit.
However, he made only one appearance for the Hoops at senior level, coming as a substitute for Jos Hooiveld in a 2-2 draw with Inverness in November 2010. Ritchie Towell played for the likes of Hibernian (loan), Dundalk, Brighton, and Rotherham United (loan) as well before signing a deal with his current club Salford City.
The Salford City midfielder has nine caps with the Republic of Ireland U21 team, but he has yet to earn a call-up with the senior team. His primary position is central midfield, but he is used as an attacking midfielder as well. Richie Towell has two Irish Premier League trophies with Dundalk (2013, 2014).
