Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Sunday’s football game between Gillingham City and Bradford City will bring down the curtain on day 21 of the new League Two campaign. The Gills are stuck in the relegation zone with only 14 points in their pocket, and given their difficulties in front of goal (6:24), home win should not be considered. Liam Shephard continues to miss out with injury, which is yet another reason why we are not tempted to put our money on the hosts.
Meanwhile, the Bantams aim to make amends for back-to-back losses to Northampton and Leyton. Since Bradford faced a tough fixture list, we believe that they are capable of beating the out-of-sorts Gills this weekend. There are no fresh injury worries in the away side ahead of Saturday’s encounter. The opposition back-line should have Andy Cook at bay. In their last meeting at the venue Gillingham crushed Bradford 4-0, meaning that the visitors are hungry for revenge.
