Our prediction for this League 1 match:
Saturday’s football game at the Broadfield Stadium pits together Crawley Town and Wrexham, the two teams with entirely different ambitions for the season finale. The Red Devils are fighting tooth and nail to secure the League One survival, while the Dragons are eyeing Championship promotion. The hosts recorded a morale-boosting win over Mansfield Town on Tuesday evening, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry against Phil Parkinson’s troops.
Wrexham suffered a dip in form, losing each of their last three league matches, but they will not have a better chance than this to get back on course. Given the number of high-profile players in the away team, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on the promotion hopefuls. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team ahead of the trip to West Sussex.
Highlighted Team (Crawley):
Crawley Town are an English football club that compete in the League 2. The club was founded back in 1896 and in the 2011/2012 season they secured promotion to the English fourth tier for the first time. The Devils play their home games at Broadfield Stadium, the venue which was built and opened in 1997.
The stadium has a capacity of 6,144 spectators and is owned by Crawley Borough Council. Crawley Town are well known for their red home kit, with the team wearing white shirts and sky blue shorts when playing on the travels. Crawley Town fans consider AFC Wimbledon the club’s biggest rivals, but they have rivalries with Brighton and Swindon Town as well.
In 1959 the Devils won the Metropolitan League Cup, which is considered one of the club’s biggest successes. Crawley Town won the Sussex Professional Cup in 1970, the Gilbert Rice Floodlight Cup in 1980 and 1984, the Southern Counties Combination Floodlight Cup in 1986, and the Sussex Senior Cup in 1990 and 1991.
