Accrington will try to put an end to their three-game winless run in League Two when they take on Cheltenham on Saturday afternoon, having shared the spoils with Swindon in a 1-1 draw at the weekend. Midfielder Aidan Borland is away on international duty, while John Doolan has no fresh injury worries to contend with. Accrington have been difficult to beat at home despite their overall struggles, taking 1.40 points per game across their last five home matches and scoring 2.00 goals per game.
Cheltenham, meanwhile, are unbeaten in six matches after defeating Chesterfield 2-1 at the weekend. Pierce Sweeney picked up a knock in that victory, with fellow forward George Miller ready to step up if required. The Robins have been prolific recently, scoring 1.90 goals per game across their last 10 matches, while their away fixtures have averaged 3.25 goals. The visitors have also scored in every one of their last 10 games.
As Cheltenham have found their best form of late, our main betting tip leans toward Away Win, alongside Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals (both teams average at least 3.25 total goals across their respective home/away matches).
This League 2 match will be played on Saturday 3 October 2026 at 15:00.
