Our prediction for this League 1 match:
Tuesday’s football game at St James Park pits together Exeter and Shrewsbury, the two teams who sit in the opposite halves of the table. The Grecians suffered yet another dip in form, with the team collecting only one point in total from the last four league matches and, no doubt, they are eager to get back on course.
As Exeter experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 7-0 loss to Bolton, Gary Caldwell is widely expected to make changes to the starting XI, with all Rankine, Wildschut, and Taylor pushing for a recall to the starting XI. The Shrews, on the other hand, produce much better showings at home than on the travels, which is probably the main reason why we are going to bet on the home side. Tom Flanagan limped off with injury in the last league match, with Joe Anderson likely to step up.
Highlighted Team (Exeter):
Nicknamed the Grecians, Exeter City are a professional football club that welcome their rivals at St. James Park. The stadium was opened in September 1904, and it can hold up to 8,696 spectators. Exeter City play their homes in white jerseys with red stripes, and black shorts, while violet and yellow are the dominant colours of their away kit.
The Grecians made it to the FA Cup quarter-finals on two occasions (1930/31, 1980/81), with the team advancing to the FA Trophy semis in the 2005/06 season. The likes of Harry Gee, Cliff Bastin, Maurice Setters, Dick Pym, Fred Whitlow, Arnold Mitchell, Tony Kellow, Fred Binney, Darran Rowbotham, Lee Sharp, and David Pleat are one of the most notable footballers who played for Exeter City in the past.
Plymouth Argyle, Torquay United, Bristol Rovers, and Yeovil Town are considered the club’s fiercest rivals. The Grecians currently compete in the League Two.
