Crawley Town will be desperate to move away from the relegation zone after a 3–1 defeat to Bristol Rovers. As Shrewsbury head into the season finale with the lack of motivation, we predict a 2-1 home win. Crawley's recent form has been underwhelming (1.00 PPG), though they are slightly more competitive at home, averaging 1.20 points per game. The Red Devils score just 0.90 goals per match overall, which remains a concern in such a high-pressure situation. Midfielder Louie Watson is pushing for a start after scoring off the bench at the weekend, while Kellan Gordon is expected to miss out through injury.
Shrewsbury, meanwhile, have already secured survival and come into this match with less pressure after a 1–0 win over Oldham. With no fresh injury concerns, they have a settled squad, but their inconsistency (1.20 PPG) continues to show. Defensively, the Shrews concede 1.50 goals per game and have failed to keep a clean sheet in any of their recent away matches.
Given Crawley's motivation in the relegation battle, Home Win should be considered, alongside Both Teams to Score (71% H2H) and Over 2.5 goals (57%).
This League 2 match will be played on Saturday 18 April 2026 at 15:00.
