Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Harrogate will try to recover from a 2-0 loss to Salford City when they take on AFC Wimbledon in the League Two round 19. The Sulphurites are eyeing their fifth home win of the process, but they will have a big fish to fry against AFC Wimbledon. Both Muskwe and Folarin are pushing for a spot in the starting XI after the duo came off the bench in the midweek defeat.
The Dons, on the other hand, are eyeing a spot in the playoffs and a win over Harrogate could see them climb to top seven in the standings. AFC Wimbledon are more of a team than Harrogate and seeing that they defeated the Sulphurites in their last meeting at Exercise Stadium, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the promotion-chasing visitors. Josh Kelly is rated doubtful for the visiting side after limping off with injury in the midweek draw with Newport County.
Highlighted Team (Harrogate):
Harrogate Town is an English club that welcomes their rivals at Wetherby Road. Opened on August 28, 1920, the venue can hold up to 5,000 spectators (500 seated). The club was founded back in 1914, with the Sulphurties facing Horsforth in their first competitive match on August 30, 1919.
Harrogate Town footballers wear yellow and black shirts when playing at home, while pink is the dominant colour of their away jersey. The Sulphurties did well to win the Whitworth Cup in the 1919/20 season, while the club’s biggest success in the FA Cup came in the 2012/13 when they made it to the second round.
Simon Weaver is one of the most notable footballers who played for Harrogate Town in the past. The team’s manager for the 2020/21 season played for several English clubs, and he has been very successful in the coaching job as well.
