Our prediction for this League 1 match:
Port Vale play host to Accrington at their Vale Park in the League One round 22. The Valiants have been having their ups and downs of late, with the team beating both Charlton and Plymouth, while losing to Oxford and Bristol Rovers, but a win over Accrington could see them climb to the playoffs places. Both Butterworth and Massey are pushing for a start after coming from the bench in the 1-0 loss to the Pirates.
The Accy Stanley, on the other hand, aim to escape the danger zone, and seeing that they will go for a win as well, we believe that gamblers from all around the globe can find value in betting on both teams to score. Accrington Sean McConville is likely to miss out with injury for the visiting side.
