Prediction: 1-1
Notts County
Whaddon Road will host Sunday’s football game between Cheltenham Town and Notts County, the two teams who defeated Crewe and MK Dons respectively on Boxing Day. The Robins aim to move closer to the playoffs berth, but they face a tough challenge against the Magpies. A man to watch in the home team will be Joel Colwill, who scored a brace against the Railwaymen.
Notts County, on the other hand, are eyeing their third consecutive league win. A triumph over Cheltenham will see the visitors finish 2024 in the playoffs berth, but beating the Robins at Whaddon Road is easier said than done. A close encounter is on the cards and we predict that the two sides are going to share the spoils in the last game of the year. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team ahead of the trip to Gloucestershire.
