Prediction: 2-1
Crawley
Forest Green will look to keep their 100% record in the new League Two campaign intact when they take on Crawley Town on Saturday afternoon. The Green Army made a flying start to the season, but they can’t afford any complacency in the clash against Crawley. The attacking partnership of Matt and Stevens has been in a perfect working order of late, and the duo is likely to prove a handful for the opposition defenders.
The Red Devils, on the other hand, aim to build on a 2-1 win over Salford City. Crawley are tough to beat at home, but they will have a mountain to climb in the New Lawn showdown. It has to be noted, though, that Forest Green are eyeing their first win over Crawley Town since October 2019. Ashley Nadesan, who found the net in the midweek triumph, is widely expected to lead the line for the visitors.
