Our prediction for this League 2 match:
The People’s Pension Stadium will be the center of attention when Crawley Town and Gillingham lock horns in the League Two round 4. The Red Devils made a promising start to the season, with the team beating both Bradford and MK Dons, while sharing the spoils with Salford and, no doubt, they are brimming with confidence ahead of Saturday’s clash. With no fresh injury worries to report, Scott Lindsey is unlikely to make changes to the team that defeated the Dons in midweek.
The Gills, on the other hand, aim to keep their 100% record in the new season intact, but seeing that Crawley are tough to beat at home, we predict that the two sides are going to share the spoils at the People’s Pension Stadium. As for the away team, Neil Harris is likely to field the same starting XI that defeated Sutton on Tuesday evening.
