Prediction: 1-1
Bromley
Shrewsbury play host to Bromley at their Croud Meadow in the opening match of their League Two campaign. The Shrews are eyeing a quick return to the League One, but they are not listed among favourites to secure promotion. Top scorer John Marquis is widely expected to lead the line for the hosts, while midfielder Jordan Shipley is no longer part of the team.
The Ravens, on the other hand, aim to recover from a pre-season defeat to Millwall. As both Bromley will go for a victory in Saturday’s encounter, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on both teams to score. Bromley chiefs have signed permanent deals with the likes of Kyle Cameron, Mitch Pinnock, William Hondermarck, and Dillon Addai this summer, while winger Harry McKirdy is a new Crawley Town player.
Highlighted Team (Shrewsbury):
Based in Shrewsbury, Shropshire, Shrewsbury Town are a professional club that play home games at New Meadow stadium, the venue which was opened in 2007 and has the capacity of 10,361. Shrewsbury Town were founded back in 1886, with some reports indicating the club was established at the Lion Hotel.
The Blues wear blue shirts with yellow stripe and blue shorts when playing at home, whilst the colour of their away kit is purple. Mickey Brown holds the club record for most appearances as he played 190 games for the club, scoring 9 goals in the league. Both Wolverhampton and Walsall are regarded as the club’s fiercest rivals, but there have always been fireworks in matches between Shrewsbury Town and Hereford United as well.
The two teams face each other in the “A49 derby” and it has to be noted that the Blues have built rivalries with Chester City and Wrexham as well.
