Prediction: 1-0
Port Vale
Cheltenham Town will be aiming to build on back-to-back wins over Cambridge United and Blackpool when they take on Port Vale in the League One round 34. The Robins have been impressive at the back of late, with the team eyeing their third consecutive clean sheet and they are likely to rely on their rock-solid defence in Saturday’s encounter. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Elliot Bonds, who scored a brace against Blackpool, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
The Valiants, on the other hand, failed to win the previous six league matches and given their difficulties on the road, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the in-form hosts. In the first half of the season Cheltenham defeated Port Vale 2-1, meaning that the hosts are eager to get their revenge on the visiting team.
Highlighted Team (Port Vale):
Nicknamed the Valiants, Port Vale are a professional club that compete in the League Two. Port Vale welcome their rivals at Vale Park, and they wear white and black kit when playing in front of home fans. Yellow, on the other hand, is the dominant colour of their away kit.
The Valiants’ home ground, which was built in 1950, can hold up to 49,768 people. Championship side Stoke City are seen as one of the club’s fiercest rivals, but their rivalry is pretty healthy. The two teams first met on December 2, 1882, with the Potters emerging triumphant (1-0).
The Valiants maintain a rivalry with fellow League 2 club Crewe Alexandra as well. Speaking of the club’s titles, it has to be noted that Port Vale have won Football League Trophy on two occasions (1993, 2001). A 9-1 win over Chesterfield from September 24, 1932 is the club’s biggest triumph.
