Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Vale Park will host Saturday’s League Two game between Port Vale and Swindon Town, the two sides who are eyeing promotion to the League One. The Valiants have been having their ups and downs of late, with the team beating both Hartlepool and Bristol Rovers, while losing to Newport County. Port Vale aim to stay in top seven, but this will be anything but a walk in the park for the home team.
The bad news for the hosts is that important defender Dan Jones misses out through suspension. The Robins, on the other hand, aim to make amends for a 3-2 loss at Mansfield. Since Swindon Town are determined to return to winning ways as well, we believe that both teams to score betting option should be considered. A man to keep an eye on in the away side will be Harry McKirdy, who looks unstoppable at the moment.
