Prediction: 2-1
Gillingham
Hartlepool welcome Gillingham to their Victoria Park on day 11 of the new League Two campaign. The Pools are eager to record their first win of the season, and we are positive that they will leave their hearts on the field. Both Sterry and Ferguson are eyeing a spot in the starting XI, as well as Mikael Ndjoli who has overcome his injury.
The Gills, on the other hand, aim to put an end to their seven-game winless run, but given their difficulties in front of goal, we believe that the time has come for Paul Hartley’s troops to return to winning ways in the League Two. Neil Harris has no fresh injury worries ahead of Saturday’s clash. This will be the first meeting between the two sides since November 2018 when Gillingham eliminated Hartlepool in the FA Cup after extra-time.
