Our prediction for this League 2 match:
A spot in the League One will be at stake when Crawley Town and Crewe Alexandra square off against each other in the playoffs final at Wembley Stadium. The Red Devils hammered MK Dons 8-1 on aggregate in the semis and, as a result, they are seen as hot favourites to beat the Railwaymen in the decider. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Danilo-Orsi-Dadomo, who scored a hat-trick in the 5-1 crushing of MK Dons, while all Forster, Wright, and Lolos are major doubts after the trio got injured in the semis, return leg.
The nominal visitors, on the other hand, set up a meeting with Crawley Town by beating Doncaster on penalties. Elliot Nevitt should recover in time to face the Red Devils after suffering a head injury in the triumph over the Donny. Anyhow, home win should be considered as Crawley look unstoppable at the moment.
