Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Buoyed by back-to-back wins over Gillingham and Newport County, AFC Wimbledon will look to climb to the automatic promotion berth when they face Cheltenham Town at the Cherry Red Records Stadium. The Dons have found their best form of late and they must be high on confidence ahead of Saturday’s clash. Saint Kitts and Nevis midfielder Romaine Sawyers is pushing for a start after scoring as a substitute at the weekend, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
The Robins, on the other hand, head into the match following a goalless draw with Port Vale. As Cheltenham Town failed to win the previous five away games in all competitions, we are tempted to place our bets on the home team. Saint Lucia international Arkell Jude-Boyd is widely expected to return to Cheltenham’s starting line-up after coming as a substitute in a goalless draw with Port Vale.
Highlighted Team (AFC Wimbledon):
Based in Kingston upon Thames, AFC Wimbledon are a professional football club that compete in the third tier of English football, commonly known as the League One.

AFC Wimbledon play their home games in blue shirts and blue shorts, whilst the colour of their away kit is yellow.
