Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Monday’s football match between Fleetwood and Morecambe will bring down the curtain on the League Two round 7. The Cod Army aim to recover from un unlucky EFL Cup defeat to Stoke City and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against Morecambe. Harrison Holgate limped off with injury in the midweek defeat, with Kayden Hughes likely to replace him in the starting XI.
The Shrimps, on the other hand, played out a thrilling 3-3 draw with Colchester United in their last league match. Morecambe are stuck at the bottom of the table with only one point on their account and given their shaky defence, we predict that the hosts are going to emerge triumphant in Saturday’s encounter. The bad news for the away side is that important defender Luke Hendrie serves a one-game ban following his sending-off in the thrilling draw with Colchester United.
Highlighted Team (Fleetwood):
Known for their attacking style of play, Fleetwood Town are a professional football club based in Fletwood, Lancashire. The Fishermen play their home matches at Highbury Stadium, the venue with the capacity of 5,327 (2,672 seated), with the team wearing red and white shirts in home matches.
On the other hand, Fleetwood footballers are dressed in yellow when playing on the travels. The original club was founded back in 1908 under the name of Fleetwood FC and 69 years later they were re-established as Fleetwood Town F.C. In 1998 the club was renamed to Fleetwood Wanderers after the second reformation.
Legendary England footballer Joey Barton is considered one of the club’s most notable coaches. Barton, who was known for his incidents on the field, has been in charge since June 2, 2018. Neighbouring club Blackpool are regarded as one of Fleetwood’s main rivals. The Fishermen have built up rivalries with Morecambe and Preston North End as well.
