Prediction: 1-0
Mansfield
Forest Green and Mansfield Town take on each other at the New Lawn in a highly-anticipated League Two game. The Green Army aim to build on back-to-back wins over Colchester and Scunthorpe, with the team eyeing their third consecutive clean sheet. Even though important attacker Matt Stevens limped off with injury after just 15 minutes as the weekend, home win should be considered as Forest Green are eager to secure automatic promotion.
The Yellows, on the other hand, are eyeing a place in the playoffs. Mansfield did well to beat Northampton at home thanks to Oliver Hawkins’ goal, but given their anything but brilliant away record, we are tempted to put our money on the league leaders. Jamie Murphy is a major doubt, while Kellan Gordon is out for the rest of the season. Ollie Clarke is yet another absentee in the away side.
