Shrewsbury Town host Gillingham looking to build on their three-game winning run at home and we predict that they will do so with a 2-1 triumph over Gareth Ainsworth's troops. The Shrews have been defensively solid at home, keeping 3 clean sheets in 4 games (75%), and scoring consistently, averaging 1.25 goals per home match. Away, their form dips considerably, conceding nearly two goals per match, highlighting a vulnerability Gillingham could exploit. To make things even better for the hosts, boss Michael Appleton has a full squad to choose from.
The Gills, on the other hand, continue to struggle on the road, with just 1 win in their last 5 away fixtures and scoring only 1.2 goals per game on average. The Gills have conceded 1.6 goals per away match, showing defensive problems. Historically, their head-to-head meetings suggest open games, with 88% of matches seeing over 1.5 goals and 69% featuring both teams to score. Adding to their woes, all Masterson, Morris, and Williams are sidelined with injuries.
Given Shrewsbury’s fine run at home and Gillingham’s shaky defence, Shrewsbury to Win, Over 1.5 Goals, and BTTS are solid options for this clash.
This League 2 match will be played on Saturday 29 November 2025 at 15:00.
