Prediction: 2-1
Cheltenham
Notts County will look to put an end to their three-game winless run when they face Cheltenham Town on Matchday 44. The Magpies are on the right track to book their spot in the playoffs and a win over Cheltenham could see them move closer to the automatic promotion berth. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be veteran striker David McGoldrick, who got his name on the scoresheet in a 1-1 draw with Bradford City, while all Ness, Robertson, Austin, and Bass should miss out with injuries.
The Robins, on the other hand, head into Monday’s game with the lack of motivation as they are sitting in the middle of the table. Given the importance of this match for Notts County, we do not believe that the underdogs are capable of spoiling the Magpies’ party at Meadow Lane. All Harry Pell, Luke Young, and Darragh Power are out of contention with injuries for the visiting side.
