Prediction: 1-1
Crawley
Following a 1-1 draw with Colchester United, Accrington will be aiming to return to winning ways when they take on Crawley Town on Saturday afternoon. The Accy Stanley have been having their ups and downs of late, with the tea losing to MK Dons, beating AFC Wimbledon, while sharing the spoils with Colchester. Brad Hills is banned for the match, while Dan Martin should replace Seamus Conneely in the starting XI.
The Red Devils, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Forest Green and AFC Wimbledon, but beating Accrington on the road is easier said than accomplished. Taking everything into account, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on draw. There are no fresh injury worries in the visiting team ahead of the round 35 clash, but Jeremy Kelly could sneak into the starting eleven.
