Prediction: 1-0
Morecambe
Whaddon Park will host Tuesday’s football game between Cheltenham and Morecambe. The Robins desperately needed a win against Accrington, and they managed to get one. Cheltenham put an end to their three-game losing run thanks to Kyle Vassell’s goal, and, no doubt, the triumph gave them a confidence boost. Keep in mind, though, that Ellis Chapman is unlikely to feature in the midweek clash after limping off with injury in the victory over Accrington.
Morecambe, on the other hand, aim to make amends for back-to-back defeats to Wycombe and Burton. The Shrimps suffered a dip in form, and given Cheltenham’s display in the triumph over Accrington, home win should be considered. Jonathan Obika remains in the recovery room, but he should be the only absentee in the away team. In their last meeting in a competitive match Morecambe defeated Cheltenham 1-0, meaning that the hosts are hungry for revenge.
Highlighted Player (Chris Hussey):
Born in Hammersmith, England, Christopher Hussey is an experienced defender who plays for Cheltenham Town in the League Two. After spending his youth career at the likes of Woking and AFC Wimbledon, Hussey continued playing for the Dons at senior level.
He played for a number of English clubs in the past, but, no doubt, the most notable one is Sheffield United. Chris Hussey made seven appearances for the Blades in the League One, but nowadays he is a League Two player. His main position is left-back, but he is capable of producing fine displays as a left midfielder as well.
It has to be noted that he was called up for the England C team as a standby. Christopher Hussey made his Cheltenham Town debut on August 21, 2018 in a 1-1 draw with Macclesfield Town. He scored his first goal with the Robins in a 4-2 loss to Mansfield Town.
Highlighted Team (Morecambe):
Based in Lancashire, England, Morecambe are a professional club that compete in the League 2. The Shrimps were founded in 1920, and they welcome their home rivals at Globe Arena. The venue, which was opened in August, 2010, can hold up to 6,476 people.
Morecambe wear red shirts and red shorts when playing in front of home fans, while yellow is the dominant colour of their away kit. Fellow Lancashire-based club Accrington Stanley are seen as the club’s fiercest rivals. The Shrimps have rivalries with the likes of Lancaster City, Fleetwood Town, Barrow, Kendal Town, and Southport as well.
In 1974 Morecambe won the FA Trophy as they defeated Dartford 2-1 in the title game, and 14 years later they lifted the Conference League Cup trophy. The Shrimps secured promotion into the Football League with a 2-1 win over Exeter City in the 2007 play-offs final.
