Both Teams To Score Prediction: No
This is a very curious matchup because we have two completely different teams. While Accrington are far from great defensively, they will face the team with the weakest attack in the entire league. It is shocking to see Gillingham this high in the table after some of their performances this season. They have scored only 8 goals in 12 away games this season and Accrington are one of the strongest home sides here. We think that there is a good chance for a clean sheet.
Match Result Prediction: Accrington to Win
Apart from a short period earlier this season when Accrington had a bad streak, they have been quite brilliant at home. Only four teams have won more points at home this season than them. They have 8 wins in 14 games and a goal difference of 24:16. The team has been heavily reliant on home performances this season as they are one of the weakest away teams in the league. They cannot afford to drop points against a direct opponent as the win from this game can lead to either team getting a spot in the playoff zone.
Correct Score Prediction: 1-0 to Accrington
This game may surprise us with a high scoreline but based on the constant bad performance on the road, we do not think that Gillingham will win this match. Accrington are not a high-scoring side and Gillingham are definitely not a bad team defensively, they simply often fail to score themselves. When we compare the Accrington vs Gillingham line ups, we definitely think that the home side has the advantage in this fixture but it would have been the complete opposite if the match was on Gillingham's stadium.
