Gillingham
Match Time & Date:
9 April 2022
14:00
Prediction: 0-2
Wycombe
Priestfield Stadium will host Saturday’s football match between Gillingham and Wycombe, the two teams with totally different ambitions in the season finale. The Gills are eager to escape the relegation zone, while the Chairboys are eyeing a spot in the playoffs. Gillingham failed to spoil Sunderland’s party at Stadium of Light, and they face yet another uphill task on Matchday 42.
You should know that the Gills failed to find the net in the previous four home fixtures in the English third tier. Wycombe, on the other hand, impressed in back-to-back wins over Doncaster (2-0) and Cambridge United (4-1), which is yet another reason why we are tempted to put our money on the visiting side. Sullay Kaikai misses out with injury, but he should be the only absentee in the away team this time out.
Highlighted Player (Stuart O\'Keefe):
Stuart O’keefe is a an English footballer who started his senior career at Southend United. In August 2010 O’Keefe signed a one-year deal with Crystal Palace after impressing coach George Burley in a trial game against West Ham reserves.
The 173-cm-tall midfielder scored one goal in 36 appearances for the Eagles in the Premier League, finding the net in a 3-1 win over Sunderland on August 31, 2013. Stuart O’Keefe played for Blackpool on loan before moving to Cardiff City in the winter of 2015.
After his loan spells with Milton Keynes Dons, Portsmouth and Plymouth Argyle, O’Keefe moved to Gillingham at the end of the 2018/2019 season. He made his League One debut with the club on August 3, 2019 in a 1-1 draw with Doncaster Rovers. His main position is central midfield, but he is used as both defensive and attacking midfielder as well. His preferred foot is right.
Highlighted Team (Wycombe):
Founded back in 1887, Wycombe Wanderers are one of the oldest clubs in the League One. The Chairboys are well known for their sky blue and dark blue shirts, but the colour of their away kit is orange combined with gun-metal gray.
Wycombe Wanderers host their rivals at Adams Park, a small stadium in Sands Industrial Estate which can hold up to 10,137 people. Milton Keynes Dons are seen as the club’s main rivals, with the two teams facing each other in the Buckinghamshire derby. Wycombe Wanderers made it to the FA Cup semis in the 2000/2001, with the team repeating the success in the League Cup six seasons later.
It has to be noted that the Chairboys have two FA Trophy titles (1991, 1993). Legendary midfielder Gareth Ainsworth is considered one of the club’s most famous players. Ainsworth scored 16 goals in 112 league appearances for Wycombe Rovers.
